Here we go! Already began ordering merchandise, free shipping! Mixed emotions with Mike aboard Songbird, but would love Beholder retiring now, to win the Distaff. She filled the void for many after Zenny.
Judy B from Rhode Island
Dear Z Fans:
Chromie and his team follow Z’s example and offer items to raise funds to help our beloved TBs. Godspeed Chromie; go get ’em beautiful boy. Love and Hugs, JB

US filly, New Money Honey takes the Juvenile Fillies. Trained by Chad Brown, NMH won with Javier aboard. Lovely win.
Judy B from Rhode Island
Dear Max:
Congrats to New Money Honey (cute name). She’s a Medaglia d’Oro. Chad and Javier are quite the team. Love and Hugs, JB
Max
I like her name. She’s a fast developer for her age too. She was born May 1, 2014.

John Gosden was wise to leave his girls at home.The track is far too fast for euros.Waiting for Songbird and Beholder.
Max
Guardian says that they had to send out search parties to find out where O’Brien horses ended up in the Juvenile Fillies turf. Big disappointment for such a long journey.
Bobby Frankel is still hanging on to that record. Hope that he keeps it.
Judy B from Rhode Island
Dear Max:
Sounds like one of TC GP’s old “chestnuts”. Hope they all came out of the race in good shape and have easy flights home.
Bobby’s one of a kind! Love and Hugs, JB

sheena.davies(wales)

Max
Corona Del Inca was pulled up and banned off to the hospital. Hope that she’s okay.

Hi Judy: So sad about Corona del Inca.
Thanks for sharing. My sympathy to her connections.
Happy for Beholder and congratulations to Songbird and Mike. It was a great race for both of them.

Judy B from Rhode Island
Dear Marilu:
Good to have a post from you. Hope you are well.
Yes, the very sad side of racing. RIP.
Both Beholder and Birdie have huge hearts and gave it their all. Head bob could have gone either way. Love and Hugs, JB
sheena.davies(wales)
Sadly Corona del Inca has been euthanised due to her injuries.Much sympathy with her connections.RIP.
Marshall (NC Broad)
Rest in Peace Corona del Inca, beautiful girl.
Apparently, her foreleg was too badly damaged to be repaired and keep her comfortable.
There was the condylar fracture, damage to the sesamoid and pastern. She was euthanized. Another young beauty lost to us, but now free to run with the angels.
Hugs and Love
Marshall (NC Broad)
Dear Sheena,
Your post had not appeared on my screen when I posted the news about Corona del Inca.
Sorry for the mix-up.

November 5 Cherokee Devotional
When time is short and there’s a lot to do, don’t say you can’t do something. Start out in faith, and when you get into the flow of what needs to be done, strength and wisdom come.
Starting out in faith is the most important step. If you wait until everything is right, you can forget 95 percent of what you were going to do. There’s never a “perfect” time to do anything, and there’s never a flag that tells you when to start running. So, just take a deep breath and start out in faith-and ignore all the signs that tell you you’re never going to make it. You will make it. Those who start out in faith, end up with the prize.
Formerly, when we lived in ignorance, we were foolish; but now, since we listen to the voice of the Great Spirit, we are happy.
-Tenkswataya, Shawnee

Dear Sheena,
Hope you’re having a lovely Saturday. I’m having lunch with my friend Debbe at one of the beautiful wineries in Temecula. Looking forward to that! I was so sorry for Songbird. She ran a great race. Fingers crossed for Chromie today. Zoe looked cute with her stuffed animal friends but Mommy had trouble with her cell phone and the bluetooth in her car. Last weekend before the election. Can’t wait for it to be over with! Enjoy your day. Love and hugs from me, kisses from Angel Holly, Nikko and Sugar. Kathy XOXO
sheena.davies(wales)
Dear Kathy.Sunny but pretty cold over here.Enjoy your lunch with Debbie.Wow,that was a great race last night.It was John Magnier who decided Found should go for the turf I have a sneaking suspicion Aidan would have left her in the Classic!I had another late night The English Patient was being shown again 3.30am I got to bed!!Love that film.I hope you are all prepared for Tuesday the ratties are!We might have a snap general election in the spring.All the polls indicate Mother Theresa will walk it but the British are fickle.A very Happy Guy Fawkes day to you.Hope he realises we still remember him 400yrs on.Best of luck to Found and CC tonight.Silviniaco Conti was 2nd at Down Royal and Don Poli was pulled up.Have a great day.Love and hugs to you,Kisses for Angel Holly,Nikko and Sugar SheenaXOXOSuch sad news about Michael Bublé’s son.

How exciting to see the Zenyatta Celebration is back! In hopes of winning a chance to visit with the Queen I will be ordering my sticker again this year! Thank you for the opportunity to have fun in the Zenyatta Shop as well. Good wishes and prayers for a nice win for Gormley in the Juvenile today – how wonderful it will be to see John Shirreffs and the Mosses silks back in the Breeders’ Cup winners circle.
sheena.davies(wales)
Valseur Lido won the race at Down Royal.Now with Henri de Bromhead he is still ridden by the short guy.The racing community are rallying around Freddy Tylicki they have collected well over £30,000 and counting.Prayers for a good recovery.
