{Dec. 1, 2007}     3 year old home bred Min's Amzingrace is now cleared to return to race training. Making her first 4 career starts at Pimlico, Colonial Downs and Laurel, Grace was injured while leading her first route race at Laurel Park when she took a bad step, injuring both front legs. Her road to recovery has been shorter then first expected but tedious.

     Pictured here  working through the trot as part of her monitored exercise and therapy program. She has recovered 100% from both a Superficial Flexor and Deep Digital Flexor injuries in a much shorter amount of time compaired to conventional therapies and rehabilitation. 100% proof Cold Compression Therapy from ZAMAR and a solid exercise program WORK! (Total recovery time from Injury date to finial vetting less then 90 days)

{Dec. 1, 2007}      4 Yr old Freud Filly - Four Nine Whiskey managed and rehabilitate by Horsepower Company takes a very game 3rd in her first start back in more then a year. Missing 2nd by a half stride.  Kendry Castillo in the irons

{Nov. 30, 2007}     As an ex-rider myself with my own little list of (minor) injuries...I was very lucky to have ridden some of the better horses in our area. I have absolutely not one regret about my years as an active Jockey, nor my more then 13 yrs as a licensed Exercise rider.
 
But the next time you see a race, go to place a bet, watch a post parade. please remember there is a person on that horse...and they risk their lives everyday for our enjoyment....just like the horses they ride!
 
Please support the Jockeys Guild when and where you can, at the track, though fund raisers, etc....Those riders have very little insurance coverage while they are in the irons and all too often forgotten about after they get hurt and aren't able to earn a living in the irons!
