Sarah's Secret made it two wins in as many starts, surprising heavily-favored Tales in Excess in a $41360 allowance Thursday at Oak Tree/Hollywood Park. Owned by breeder Joan Hadley Thoroughbreds and trained by Kathy Walsh, the 2-year-old daughter of Leroidesanimaux and the Luhuk mare Sarasota angled off the inside in the stretch and ran past the pacesetter, who was 3-10, in the final yards. The 5-2 second choice in a field reduced to four after the scratch of May Day Rose, Sarah's Secret ran the 6 ½ furlongs over Cushion Track in 1:16.24. Ridden by David Flores, Sarah's Secret returned $7 and $2.40. The place price on Tales in Excess, who had defeated maidens by 4 ½ lengths in her Del Mar debut on Sept. 4, was $2.10. There was no show wagering. The Mike Harrington-trained duo of Swiss Wild Cat and Hi Ho Yodeler completed the order of finish. An off-the-pace winner in her initial try at Del Mar on Aug. 22, Sarah's Secret, who won by a half-length, increased her earnings to $54000.

This is the surprise! Today my family went to this racehorse rescue place like 2 and 1/2 hours from my house to look at a six year old off-the-track racehorse named handsome for my sister and a 16 year old Andalusian-something-cross named silver for moi :) Both horses were rescued from the kill pen at a slaughter house---just so terrible it's hard to put into words. We went to look at Handsome in the paddock first because he has some lameness thing in his right front hoof so he couldn't be ridden today, and he was really sweet :) Then we got silver from another paddock and the woman rode him up the driveway/street thing next to the RTV we were in that was so loud it was insane, but he didn't even look at it! So then she rode him in the riding paddock place and then my sister and then me (but i wasn't taped then). He was a big sweetie, pretty strong in his mouth but when we go back i am going to use a stronger bit and my own saddle so it should be a bit better i hope! After that i rode him back to his paddock and we said goodbye and left! We'll go back soon i hope :) It was funny to see silver and his heftiness next to all the other horses that were all young thoroughbreds... Silver is like 15.1 hands and big-boned and Handsome is like 15.2 and sleek ;P There are no promises that we will get them or any other horses, but it is looking good! Tell me if you read all that and if i left something out :) -Harper If this doesn't make an ounce of sense (:-P) and also just because ...
**READ** THIS IS MELLAS OLDER SISTER! so i have a piece of my maggie back through mella. i miss you so much baby girl and everytime i think about you i break down in tears. you were my one.. ok so first off..this was OVER a year ago. like WAY over a year ago. this was a week after i got her and she was my riding soul mate. i owe her everything, she saved my life and for that i am forever greatful! she was put down september 3rd 2009 due to a kick straight to the hock completely shattering it. Maggies story is a long one so ill make it quick. She came off the track june 1st 2008 and was purchased by chris. chris rehab her beautifully and did a wonderful job. he went to his home country spain for a month and the guy where she was boarded along with chris's other thoroughbreds were all starved. so he came home to skin and bones. i found maggie 2 weeks later and yes she was dying and yes, she was a LOAD of money...she has impeccable blood lines. anyways i bought her fell in love and we trained and showed and went far...and then turning to our 6th month together everything fell apart... FOR THE FULL STORY PM ME! This is my baby girl Maggie. YOU SAY ONE MEAN THING ABOUT HER AND I WILL HONESTLY KILL YOU. This horse gave me her all for 6 months and im sad to death that she had to be put down. Its killing me...literally. i cry myself to sleep everynight. RIP Maggie. Your in my heart forever. You were a beautiful young girl who graced this earth and taught us all about beauty. May ...

Wine Police delivered the first eye-catching performance by a 2-year-old debuter during the 2010 Saratoga Race Course meet -- which has served as a launching pad for many of history's best thoroughbreds -- on Saturday when he romped home a 7 ¾-length winner. The juvenile is the first maiden winner at the Spa to be featured in the New York Watch series, which profiles up-and-comers that have recently cleared the maiden ranks at Aqueduct, Belmont Park, and Saratoga. His page is located at www.nyra.com Backed as the 5-2 second choice in yesterday's seventh race, Wine Police wasted no time getting to the front, breaking on top and drilling fractions of 22.22 and 45.50 while receiving pressure from Soldat and Mythical Truth. After putting those rivals away at the head of the stretch, Wine Police leveled off under hand urging to easily defeat Soldat by 7 ¾ lengths, who was 5 ¾ lengths clear of Santiva in third. "He ran very fast and very impressively," said winning rider Shaun Bridgmohan. "The most impressive aspect of his debut was the way he relaxed and then when I asked him, how professional he was. Horses came around him and he didn't panic, and when I asked him to go, he took off." Wine Police covered 5 ½ furlongs in 1:03.36 -- just 0.23 seconds off the track record set by J Be K in 2007 -- and received a preliminary Beyer Speed Figure of 90. "I thought he looked super under the wire," said the colt's trainer, Steve Asmussen. "He looked beautiful when he put his head down ...
What can I say? This is Sassy in the roundpen with Laura, just two weeks after I started riding her. She has had no trainer outside of me, and, in fact, no other riders outside of my daughters and me since her racing career ended. The motherly demeanor she has with these kids is astounding and touching and just something you don't see with off-the-track thoroughbreds, who are very often "nut-cases," especially ones who were run as mercilessly as this one was. I have said it before, but this is the most intelligent, loving and willing to please horse I have ever come across. I come to the barn with something in my head, and I swear she reads my mind, because she starts doing that very thing when we start working.

It is with much regret and sadness that I make this post after much thought and even more denial but I believe it is due. During the summer of 2008, after being horseless for 8 years, my boyfriend and I decided to purchased the OTTB mare by the name of Pinkie Dare, affectionately referred to as Pink and for two shows at Talbot Run, All of Joe's Money. Pink was born in NY and did most of her racing at the Finger Lakes track before she was sold into Maryland and continued to race for a short time. I was lucky enough to find her, months after she was retired from racing, at the age of 6. My first trip with Pink was to a Pipe Opener at Full Moon Farm where the staff was helpful enough to walk her into the water hazard - she wasn't quite sure what to make of that. She spent a few afternoons practicing over fences under the roof of the Gentle Giants Draft Horse Rescue indoor arena, trying to get over the fear of strange objects under poles. Pink worked her way up from being an 18 jumper at Bascule farm, to clearing an easy 3' at Talbot Run and I can only imagine where she would have gone from there. She knew when to be a challenging ride for me, an entertaining (and potentially terrifying) show for a crowd and a gentle coach for a few young students who had the courage to trust her. At 16.3 hands, Pink was all heart; she was an ambassador to the world for Off-Track-Thoroughbreds - at least in my small world. On Dec 5, 2009, Pink was put down due to an unfortunate set of ...
Song: DJ Sammy - Boys Of Summer(cover) ------------------------------------------------------------ Meet Derek! Year Foaled: 2006 Height: 16.0 hh Color: Bay/drkbay/brown Markings: You would think none, But he does have 2 small white marks on his back heels, One small spot on each heel, One on his left back heel on the right side of the heel and one on his right back heel on the left side of the heel. You cannot see them unless u are looking at his heels from behind or picking his feet. He's an Off-Track thoroughbred. I bought him directly from a trainer at one of the race-tracks here in Southern California. He does have a small injury which once he's had time to rest will not effect his 2nd career. He last raced 2 weeks ago, which was when he acquire the injury and is now retiring from the track. What do i plan on doing with him? I plan on retraining him, Ultimately to be a hunter/jumper within the next couple years. He is slightly underweight right now, but trust me he already looks 20% better than he did when i got him, He's getting fed 4 flakes a day, 2 flakes per feeding and happily eats it all throughout the day. He is one of the most chilled out, laid back thoroughbreds i've ever met, especially for just racing 2 weeks ago, How he is in the video is how he has been sicne the day i saw him in the trainers track barn. He's very mellow and a complete sweetheart. He loves to be loved on and brushed. Hasnt once spooked yet, He has gotten riled up a little bit but it was ...
