“Born To Greatness” by Fred Stone
Fred Stone is considered one of the pre-eminent equine artists in the world. His work adorns the walls and collections of the most notable and discerning art connoisseurs, including those of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the White House. It is a natural fit for one of world’s most famous artists to paint one of the world’s most beloved racing heroes and the hopes and dreams her first heir carries into the next generation.
This poignant and endearing image of racing’s Queen and her newborn foal captures Zenyatta’s nurturing affection as she gently nuzzles her mirror-image dark bay colt with the distinctive diamond blaze. It is a tender and and tranquil scene played out in countless pastures and barns across the globe, indicative of the special bond between mare and foal familiar to every horselover. Stone’s subtle and soft-hued brush strokes are the perfect complimentary touch to convey this precious moment in time.

@Abigail-I will have some Canadian redneck jokes in the near future. Here are today’s redneck jokes. You might be a redneck if your dad’s cell number has nothing to do with a telephone. You might be a redneck if you think the seven year itch has something to do with your underwear. You might be a redneck if you sent in an application to appear on America’s Most Wanted. You might be a redneck if rappers find your grandmother’s language offensive. You might be a redneck if you think Forrest Gump was an intellectual.

Dear TC GP:
Laughing out loud. Rappers offended by your Grandma’s language really got me. Ha,ha. Hugs, JB

Has anybody had any trouble with the download for the PP’s for the contest? When I tried it, I got info for a race at Arlington.

Dear TC GP:
Just e-mailed the Fantasy Team to make them aware of the error. Arlington Millions PP’s are popping up instead of the PP’s for the Alabama. Hugs, JB

I have a terrible story to tell you guys. This all happened because a heartless B-word of a redneck decided to “self treat” a horse’s serious injury. This doesn’t reflect upon anyone or anything in this honorable club we have here, but it is sickening story. I must get to a computer first. IPhone takes too long.
