Jewish New Year, Ten Days of Pentinence, Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur)…

Lots of Jewish holidays, it’s a busy time of year for us. But, it’s always nice to contemplate another race. So, here’s the status rundown of our horses.

When I put it on paper, it sounds exciting but one thing you learn is to stay reserved. Things change all the time… weather, health, injury, etc. So, this is where we are at this moment in time.

Now that the summer’s over, here’s a little review in pictures of Summer 2016 in Saratoga Springs:

There are many more happy moments but this is a smattering, mostly courtesy of Steve Haskin.

Here’s wishing you all a happy, healthy, successful Jewish new year. We’ll be in Saratoga for the weekend and the holiday. We’ll see the mares and say au revoir to the foal. And, of course, we’ll sit out on the patio and observe the horses training.
