Hello Everyone,
I truly want to thank all of you for the heartfelt wishes and love you have expressed to me since hearing ‘my not in foal at this moment’ news! You are so sweet and gracious in your kindness to nurture ME at this time! I so appreciate all of your concern!
I am really doing fine. In reality, this is not an uncommon thing to happen with a maiden mare like I am. It happened early in the breeding season so I will have ample time to be bred again and get in foal. As I mentioned before, so many things in life don’t always go as planned. Upon reflection, I know with my career, it would have been great to run at 2 or early 3…but I just wasn’t ready. Fortunately, MY TEAM knew that and worked with me on my own individual developmental schedule.
In relation to this current news, it is simply a minor set-back…but I will be fine. I guess I just love to do things at my own pace!
Please remember, I AM A GREAT FINISHER! Once I get into the rhythm of things…I have a history of repeating the pattern successfully…19 times in a ROW! Now that thought is just TOO CUTE!
Again, thank you…ALL OF YOU…for the love and concern you have so kindly expressed to ME!
Have a wonderful day!
With Love,
Hugs to All~

So sorry to hear about your foal. I know that when the time is right, you’ll be a fabulous mom. Congratulations on your most recent award. Happy Birthday!! I found this quote and found it very fitting for all that has happened this week. “Count your life by smiles, not tears. Count your age by friends, not years.” May you have a long, healthy and happy life.

Thank you, Dottie, for this wonderful, comforting site. I think you should write a children’s book about horses and racing. And to you, Zenyatta, I wish a VERY Happy Birthday and send my love and gratitude. Your soul shines through your eyes and the light warms all of us who love you.
