Re: Breeder's Cup 2011
So, anyone interested, I need to start collecting a head count.
Who is in for a visit to Spendthrift Farm a day or two before the BC? I'm not sure if SIM is sponsoring another race at Churchill again this year....Steward?
Ready for a great time with great people again this year!

Re: Breeder's Cup 2011
If you do it on Thursday, I'm in. I'll mostly likely be there from Wednesday to either monday or tuesday. Or I may just stay there forever. I also have an e-mail in to Three Chimneys to see if they are having some sort of open house or something BC week/weekend.Leonard Beagle wrote:So, anyone interested, I need to start collecting a head count.

Re: Breeder's Cup 2011
I don't know about the SIM race - I don't *think* so. Laura Ferguson set it up last year, I was just along for the ride. I still don't even know if/when we are having a SIM dinner... is there interest? After last year, my whole thought process about the BC is completely blocked, it was almost ludicrously bad!Leonard Beagle wrote:So, anyone interested, I need to start collecting a head count.

I may have volunteered to help with Lane's End stallions, but I'm not going near Dynafinger.

Re: Breeder's Cup 2011
I'm not sure how many people are expressing interest but I *PLAN* on taking Thursday before and Monday after off (and Sunday, as usual) so I can take a herd down too if needed.Leonard Beagle wrote:So, anyone interested, I need to start collecting a head count.

Re: Breeder's Cup 2011
Totally down with a visit to see Spendthrift again! First time I went it was raining and terrible weather. Vinery was so friendly! But as shocking as it may be got people to believe, Lanes End will be the first farm I visit!!! I mean PP isn't just going to horsenap himself!!!Leonard Beagle wrote:So, anyone interested, I need to start collecting a head count.

Just read on the Farmer's Almanac that it's supposed to be "unseasonably cold" around Breeders' Cup time, so heads up, be ready for cold weather!

Re: Breeder's Cup 2011
Three Chimneys is having an open house on Nov 2nd (that wednesday) from 10-1 if anyone is interested in going. I'm thinking of flying out tuesday night if people want to go and I can bum a ride off someone.
