Baby Pic!

I don't know how I stumbled upon this Blog, but I am happy that I did.

Bunny Ain't No Kind of Rider covers a lot of different horse discipline so check it out!

I really wanted to share was a picture, from Bunnynorider's Blog, of Rachel Alexandra as a baby! She's cute as can be!

Keep in mind...I pick these horses by name (tradition) and a bit by the little I know. XD

Oaks, going for Blind Luck. Like the name, and the odds don't hurt!

Derby...I have three...haha
Dean's Kitten
Devil May Care (love the face)

Confused?

Connections-> The people that "belong" to the horse: owner, trainer, and jockey usually.
Breeders' Cup--> A series of races in which the best of the best compete. Usually a win here results in an Eclipse Award.
Ecplise Award--> Awards given out at the end of the racing season naming the top horses and people in different fields.
Triple Crown-->A series of three races for colts and fillys age three. If a single horse wins all three of these races it is considered a magnificent feat.
Kentucky Derby-->The first race in the Triple Crown. Arguably the biggest race in the USA and most watched by Americans.
Preakness Stakes-->Second and shortest race in the Triple Crown.
Belmont Stakes-->Third and longest race in the Triple Crown.
Dam-->A horse's mother.
Sire-->A horse's father.
Gelding-->Castrated Male horse of any age.
Stud-->Male horse that is being used for breeding purposes.
Stallion/"Horse"--> Male horse five years old or over. "Horse" can refer to age or the general term. Usually I will be using the general sense of the word not the sex.
Colt--> Male horse 4 years old or under.
Mare--> Female horse 5 years old or over.
Filly--> Female horse four years old or under.
Quarter Horse--> Breed of horse usually associated with ranchwork but also races.
Thoroughbred--> Breed of horse usually associated with racing.
