This is exactly what I'm seeing -- shoeing on the
track instead of riding though -- albeit a small track, these horses are picked
up by bigger barns quite often ....Care/Feed/Conditioning is adequate, but
certainly not what my horses are used to ....
I rode at
the TB track for 8 years...New York...Kentucky...Florida and then
California...The babies were taken to a farm for breaking before they came to
the track...most were getting broke in Aug before their 2 year old
year..(yearlings) and if they were born late....after Jan....they were really
young....they were galloping about a mile by the time they came to the
track...never really pushed to go very fast....but always rode in sets with
other young horses...boy those were the days....hahahahaha..riding 2 yr. old
stallions all morning....what fun.... Lyn Owen S.C.
