So true, so true. The more things change, the more they stay the same. What hasn't changed? My kids can run. Check out the list of my top winners of the last few months at the bottom of this post. It doesn't matter where they run, over what surface, or at what distance. This makes me the perfect stallion for the Indiana restricted program.
What is changing? With the retirement of Larry & Jo Ann Ernst at Foot Fall Farm, I've moved to Lake Shore Farms in Scottburg, Indiana for the 2012 breeding season. While I'm going to miss the boss mare and that nice barn guy Larry, I'm looking forward to my time at Lake Shore. Come check me out at their open house on December 3rd.
The other change for 2012 is my stud fee going to $3,000 up from $2,000. With four stakes winners of six stakes races (three graded stakes), all in open company, my kids can perform at a very high level. While my main man Eddie is always willing to make a deal for high quality mares, an increase for my services just made sense. Give him a call to book your mares for 2012.
