Well, our Galahad is special, as we always knew! Finally got the time to check with the Jockey Club. Here he is: Super Sup, 1989 bay gelding out of Fine Tribute. Galahad has parents, grandparents and great grandparents who were the best of the best in the world from Nashua to Swaps to War Admiral to Man of War himself.
We bow to this fine gentleman. Perhaps now someone will step up and do the honorable thing by him! He NEEDS sponsorship!

Okay, late as usual! But, I finally got around to contacting the Jockey Club on several of our racehorses! Here is Ginger:
How Dry Cyane is H13201, 1978 chestnut mare out of Forward Gesture. Her daddy was Cyane. He won $176,367. Ginger won 14 of the 24 races she was entered in, placed in top 3 5 times and 4th once.
Yes, she is now 30 years old. And yes, she just cuaght Jasmine and gave her an attitude adjustment Amazing.

Re: Ben « Result #9 on Oct 12, 2007, 11:18am »
It is with a heavy heart I announce that our sweet, strong Ben has gently crossed the Rainbow Bridge. His legs could no longer hold his mighty body. The arthritis and past injuries were just too much. He had a great year and knew for sure he was loved..........and respected.........and cherished....

It is with the heaviest heart I bring the news that Aamin (Dallas), our "Schnarkles" has crossed the Rainbow Bridge at the New England Equine Hospital. It is tragic and deeply heart wrenching. Schnarks had the greatest year of his life I am sure. He got to wear the BEST, eat the BEST and live in a couple of the BEST stables around. His adopter was also his sponsor from the beginning. She saved him with AFER and she said it was Love at first sight. I am so sorry Coleen.......no horse could ask for more than what you gave to Aamin.
