A Walk on the Wild Side


I went on a bit of a walkabout with Claudia tonight and I swear these things almost ate me. As you can see the pair of carnivores are especially frightening! And the other thing I have no idea what it was but it was BIG! Good thing she was there to protect me.

My New Fashion Accessories!



Its not my best shot, but I think I look pretty good in black.

Sleepy Time

What a team!

We are both learning from our fantastic trainer Grace Owsley, even though we are both a little lopsided, Grace is getting us straightened out.

Main Staff Member

Well, here she is, the main member of my loving staff, as you can see she is overjoyed to be in my presence, and on my back!!

What retirement?


I thought my life as a retired racehorse meant an easy life of eating, sleeping, pooping on a continuous loop, but nooooo. I am finding out that retirement actually means reschooling, which involves, dare I say it, work! Here I am learning a new style of living. By the way, what does "back" mean?
