Our First Baby - Tomboy Strong

      The underrated one that has impressed me is Jolene Hall. I bought another share last night. Up to four shares now. I also have Aunt Sara, Leland Hanover, Meghan, Bobbie, Royal Duchess ( wavering), Super Mind and Tomboy. Bobbie is coming on, she seems to be a fighter. I like the babies. Watching the drone is cool seeing progression ( hopefully..lol ). By the time they start racing my entire roster could change. Good luck to all. 

Good luck to you!  And to everyone!!

My three are Don't Ask Again, Royal Flush Deo and Highest Honors.  Watch what you wish for ..... I've been preaching since the Lexington sale that I want all the issues early.  Don't want to hear their names when he starts the top ten lists.  Work on them till they blossom in April or May. I'm getting what I asked for.  Don't Ask Again has been lazy and struggling to do her work.  Royal Flush has been ok.  Highest Honors is getting the most air time.  Anthony has repeatedly said "rude but fast".  Right now my wife and I joke about their performances and Anthony's comments.  Again, for now, we're ok.  The beauty is the process, hopefully we'll continue to grow.  Following last year the majority flip flopped.  The early stars disappointed, the early struggles flourished.  Finally, the only thing (to me) that matters to me now, STAY HEALTHY!  Trust the process!

I've been to the barn a few times since the babies arrived and during one of those visits one of the caretakers told me a story about Highest Honors. If you've been to the barn in the right row there's one stall that has a full gate on it, there's no cutout for the horse to put their head through to look out into the barn. That stall was Highest Honors' new home when he arrived. Apparently he wasn't very happy with his new accommodations and after being in there less than a hour he decided to jump over the gate. So this horse looks like he could be a handful, but I will say this he is a very nice looking horse and was well mannered when I gave him some treats. Hopefully he'll change his ways and become a good racehorse.

pcmark15, one of the few active on the forum that is fairly close proximity to Northfield?  Hopefully you are able to make the Open House.  Your observations and insights are greatly appreciated for those of us too far away.

pcmark15, thanks for that update!  And more so for the treats!  We're not going to the open house but that post sparked some curiosity for sure.  Highest Honors is now a gelding.  We'll see????

I'll be at the Open House, sorry to hear some of you wont be able to make it. If there's ever anything I can do to get you guys/gals a little closer to your horses please let me know, even if it's something as simple as picture.

That being said I but together a little something to distribute at the Open House. I have a limited number, here's a sneak preview, let me know if your interested and we'll see what we can work out.

Very kind of you to offer.  Could I get a natural photo of Casanova Hall, even if it is just of him hanging out in his stall?  You can just post it here on the forum.  And as I asked Lonnie, any photos would be great.  Hopefully, I can meet you all at the annual spring open house.
