Great Day with friends on Breeders Cup Day
Many friends gathered to watch the 2007 Breeders Cup. Vicky came fron Polsbo. Lou came from Auburn. Mike from Lake Stevens. John and Mary -Granite Falls. We made a few bets----Almost all bad--But it sure is fun to discuss, cuss -describe why your choice is better than mine. Wonderful to watch the best horses from all over the World compete--even if the track was really muddy. Also, Sam's Ace covered his first test mare today--Did fine. It is real hard to get mares to cycle this time of year in this area-but one mare agreed yesterday. We like to check new studs for true fertility--ie getting a mare in foal-even if it is really difficult this time of year. All hormone levels in mares and studs are lowest this time of year. Vicky brought some great grub-we ate well. We really had some fun. It was a beautiful day.
