32 years ago today I got my first horse (hard to believe since I’m only 29😉). A 19 year old former AQHA racehorse, she fueled the equine obsessed mental illness, taught me invaluable lessons in horse care and training, plus she tolerated all the shenanigans of a horse crazy kid. Many have come after her, billions of $$ have been spent, and a lifetime of memories made ❤️ #horsesofinstagram #myfirsthorse #quarterhorse #costumeclass #horsecrazy #equine

It’s been a hot minute since I have utilized insta, but let’s do this again. My 2 pinhook colts that are scheduled for the fall sales. 1 by Connect, the other by Collected. #horsesofinstagram #thoroughbred #thoroughbredsofinstagram #racehorse #futureracehorse #yearling #yearlingsales #kentucky

We’re both a lot older, definitely some lighter colored hairs appearing, but man we have been doing this a long time. Go For Gin, now the oldest living Kentucky Derby winner. The first photo was him at 4 years old just after he arrived at Claiborne Farm. The 2nd picture was yesterday at 30 years old at the @kyhorsepark 🌹🏇❤️ @alifefullofgin #goforgin #kentuckyderby #kentuckyderbywinner #hallofchampions #khp #kentuckyhorsepark #thoroughbred #racehorse #ky #kentucky #visitky #horsesofinstagram #racehorsesofinstagram #memories

In early May of 2018 I went on a @visithorsecountry tour at @darleystallions only to encounter a strapping colt who according to the stall card was by Tapit x Delightful Quality x Elusive Quality. Now named Essential Quality, he is a Breeder’s Cup winner, a Champion 2 year old colt and an undefeated favorite going into the 2021 Kentucky Derby. #EssentialQuality #foal #godolphin #darley #visithorsecountry #thoroughbred #racehorse #champion #babyhorse #grayhorse #tapit #bhpics #derbydreams #kyderby #horsesofinstagram #thoroughbredsofinstagram #racehorsesofinstagram #keeneland #bluegrassstakes #derbyfavorite
