All Rugged up and Nowhere to go?


Hello Everyone

Big T here - and I mean BIG! The Stud Manager says I've grown - up and out according to him, but I'm not sure about the latter - not very flattering if you ask me. I don't know what he expected, I'm here to grow and as you know I ALWAYS do as I'm told.



As you can see from the latest photos, its a bit colder now so we are rugged up during the day - I rather like the natty red myself - it does help to keep the rain off and boy have we had a lot of rain recently - on the upside though the grass has kept growing which for a growing girl is rather key. I still have my friend with me - although between you and me, although she is lovely out in the field, she does get a bit wild when we go in, and is always trying to get our of her stable. Now why she wants to do this I can't imagine - its soooooo cosy and snuggly inside and of course we get our grub which is the main attraction as far as I'm concerned.

I've heard a rumour that I'm going back to Summerdown before Christmas - so watch this space - as long as Santa knows where to find me I don't mind.

Bye for now - from a contented

Under the Weather


Oh Dear! I've been feeling rather sorry for myself as, just when I was feeling really perky and ready to run in another race, I came down with a temperature. What a disappointment - I was all psyched up and feeling as fit as a flea and then wham, I bet one of the others gave it to me - I won't point any fingers but.......

Anyway, after a course of antibiotics and a few days on the easy list I'm back on form and easing back into my work routine. I must say it hasn't been too difficult as the weather has been absolutely gorgeous and I have loved having the warm sun on my back - its been so warm at night too. I'm sure it won't last so I shall make the most of it while I can.

Now its started raining again and my Trainer said I did a good piece of work on the grass so he is hoping to find a race for me before the end of the season. So onwards and upwards that what I'm thinking. Hopefully I can report back from the racecourse soon - but time is running out fast - so hopefully I can outrun time!
