Sinatra Update from Feb 29 2008 and Mar 1 2008

Sinatra gave us a scare yesterday. The weather was so nice yesterday that I let them out for a couple of hours of grass time, and I think it was a little too long for Sinatra, who may not have been used to having any grass at all. He had a mild gas colic last night…

Phoenix Photos

Here are a few photos I took of Phoenix yesterday during his grass time: Phoenix is doing very well! He got quite a bit of grass time yesterday with the other two colts, and I think the social time and the grass really…
