They're at the Post!








Quarter Horse Racing Season started again on Sunday, May 11th at Ajax Downs. My friends Greg & Susan Watson of Full Circle Racing had 5 entries and a very successful start to their season. Two firsts, two seconds and a fourth!!!

I had the pleasure of spending the day on Saturday with Sue, bathing and grooming these incredible athletes, enjoying every minute of the excitement and anticipation of the day to come. I swear these animals know exactly what is coming and they can hardly contain their exuberance.

Greg & Sue's daughter Stephanie Brown Keeble and her husband Tom have purchased their first race horse...Money's Up...who finished 2nd for her first time running in Canada. Yeah!!!!!!!!! Money's Jockey Ramone, carried on a family tradition and wore the silks Steph's grandfather wore many many years ago. Big huge silk covered buttons...gave me goosebumps! So cool!!!
