Got home at 1 am after spending a good portion of the afternoon and night at Turfway Park where we had a first time starter running in the 12th and final race. The horse, named Comeback, ran really well at a distance shorter than his best and finished 2nd by a neck. When your horses run well it is always a good feeling. When horses that you bought for a song at the yearling sales run really well it is even better for you are justified in your initial decision about purchasing him as well as being happy about the placing.
I checked my email quickly when I warmed up after getting home (it was COLD!!) and found out my mare Mujado had a Thunder Gulch filly right around the same time that Comeback was running. She is in PA at Fox Tale stud and the early reports are we have a big, healthy baby. Not a bad day afterall.
