Location: SE Louisiana | She's definitely a pretty girl.. But I always heard TBs had ADD and could not focus long enough to count to three... I also remember reading something about a genetic defect that made it hard for them to turn to the right...That's why all the race tracks turn to the left.  |

Well you have to admit... Some of them seem to have Nitroglycerin in their DNA...

DNA or Cocktail mixes they are juiced up with? My mare acts no differently than the Quarter standing at the trailer next to her, if not better. My mom doesn't juice her thoroughbreds up so she's never been on anything crazy. |

You're lucky to have been raised around horses like that. I've only put shoes on a few and they were both event horses delegated to trail riding... Both had stifle issues. |

Location: East Texas | lol.... I guess after hanging out around barrel racing my thoughts are changing. I was at LA downs this week and saw a horse the looked like a QH, a fat QH at that. He looked like he had been hanging out in the pasture grazing with mine.... Anyway, he ran 5 furlongs and placed 2nd, and I was thinking he could prob. run some barrels. |
