Nopie update: He's still in Nebraska, we're trying to get him out of there but finding transportation has proven to be difficult and expensive. Tom has been on the phone pulling every string he can to get Nopie on the next van through town, but few shippers are going cross country via I-80, they're all taking I-10. Our best hope is still getting him back to Turf Paradise first, maybe have him rest a bit down there and see a vet, then for sure we have transportation arranged to get him from Arizona to GEVA in California.

I have attached a scan of Nopie's maiden win photo (I'm the one standing next to the groom in the black shirt), notice how he's looking at the camera, it's like he's thinking "what's everyone looking at?" He did the same thing in his 2nd winners circle photo - has anyone ever seen a horse do that before?
