まめこが来て８７日目

毎日お風呂の椅子に身をひそめる
まめこ

色々とびだしていて、身をひそめ
られてないけど楽しそうなので
まあいいか…と思ったのでした

Every single morning without fail, Jimbo reports for his shift as our official kitchen guard. He is never late, incredibly dedicated, and takes his job very seriously! 🥘

But soon, he will be retiring from his post because this sweet boy is officially adopted and heading to his forever home in England! 🇬🇧🏡

We are so incredibly happy to have changed his life. If you look at the last image, you can see just how heartbreakingly skinny and unwell he was when we first found him struggling to survive on his own. To see him go from that to the proud, healthy, and happy boy he is today makes every tough day worth it.

We are going to miss our most dedicated kitchen guard, but your new family is waiting for you, Jimbo! ❤️🐾

A new client joined us a few years ago to breed for the market. They have had some great successes in the ring with their first two crops of yearlings, selling one for $675k, one for a million, and now this one. They posted this.
Congrats @EricBensussen and Larry Bensussen!

まめこが来て８４日目

まめこがいない！仏壇周りにも
どこにもおらず「まめこ〜」と呼ぶとバスタオルの中からヒョッコリ顔を出しました

……………そんな所に隠れられたら絶対に見つけられない…とガックリしたのでした

Dual champion Essential Quality (Tapit) at @darleyamerica last week. His first-crop son The Puma became his first G1SW over the weekend.

@SireWatch I did. Was just wondering if the horse sold protected with a reserve or if he went into the ring with “wherever the hammer falls, it falls.”

I’ve never seen this photo but it’s unmistakably a colt by Nearctic out of Natalma.

What a yearling … 🤩

@AitchBeeBee They’re not together. Each is on the inside with another horse outside.

Kentucky Derby/Belmont winner Golden Tempo breezing at Keeneland this morning (he's on the inside in the 1st pic), followed by his unraced 2yo half-brother Imperial Tempo (2nd pic, also on the inside).

Not sure how I managed to @ a grandsire account 🥴

@RivermontFarm Ah okay. I thought you said you didn’t know where he’d been exported to.
