Apr. 29, 2009 - Win Willy

These Derby horses are droppin' like flies this year. Now Win Willy is out because of the beginnings of a fracture in his leg. Fortunately they caught it early, so he will be able to heal up and race another day in full health, but he will still miss the Derby. Since there is so little time left until the Derby, a field of 19 is expected, which will be the first time in quite a while for the field to not be at full capacity. If for some reason another horse is chosen to run in Win Willy's place, I will update, but unless something else happens I probably won't be posting til Derby Day.

I also want to say happy birthday to my little brother, who is turning 12 today.

This is where I post things about horses and horse racing, and once in a blue moon, something about my life. I am 13 and I've been riding for 7 years. I've yet to master anything; I've mostly just dabbled in different stuff until now. Now I am learning dressage and jumping. My favorite horses in the whole world are Bach, a 17.2 chestnut Hanoverian (Batido x Elektra) and What's It To Ya, a gray Welsh Pony we call Sammi (Finesse's Puff O'Smoke x Rountuit's Luv Ya). I ride and volunteer at a therapeutic riding center near my house, and I'm there at least 2 days a week, sometimes 3 or 4 days!! I am jumping 2 feet+ and I'm a D-2 in my local Pony Club. Although I don't have my own horse, I have a saddle, 2 bridles, a girth, a saddle pad, 2 soft brushes, 3 curry combs, 2 hoof picks, and a lot of saddle cleaning stuff. I love to sing and act, and I go to an awesome church. My favorite band is Flyleaf. Enjoy :)
