Thurs. Misc.

The best part of racing is riding, and the best part of riding is riding at speed.  Most that ride likely agree.

With regard to Mr. Nob's latest mishap, he's still sporting a very weak left leg to the point that re injury is a big concern.  We did good at the Louisiana sale--what a couple of horses we have!  The rest of it, unfortunately, we've been unable to get together.  Dust off and restart at the moment.  Unless hay field opens up immediately--and what's with Mr. Farmer letting his hay burn up in the  field.  Peasants--first step likely will be construction of an adequate riderless paddock to get the lazy #17 started at speed.  Still visualizing a fall and winter of productive galloping with that horse.  Will see.
