Misty Maggie, has a new home!
 
Maggie was 4 yrs. old when she retired sound from racing. She then went onto be a broodmare. Four years later it was decided she could give that a break, and was sent to Encore Thoroughbreds. She obviously she had been started correctly.  After not being ridden for 4 years she was so good. She enjoyed her trail rides and trips to Paddock Place!
 
Thank you, and Congratulations to Carrie Hall on her purchase, March 7, 2009, of Maggie!

Red (Ripley) came to Encore Thoroughbreds just 2 weeks after retiring from the race track. He retired sound. His trainer realizing racing wasn't his thing and sent him to us for a chance at a new career. After his down time, re-schooling started. He showed tons of talent and level headiness!
 
We want to Thank and Congratulate Jill Spevack DiSciullo on her purchase of Red. We understand he will be making his debut in the event field in the spring! Best of Luck!

"Red, now known as Ripley 'Red Label'  ROCKS -  we took him out yesterday and he was great  -  it was super windy and there were a ton of horses out and he just went along, the most he did is if he saw horses he stopped and stared... he is an ANGEL - I am so happy! I can't wait for you to come ride with us!"

Regal Baby foaled: Feb. 1988 (21yrs.)
 
"Regal" came to us in foal. Her current owner had taken her in for a companion to her broodmare. But it was later discovered that she was in foal. The owner that had  bred her did not want her back. This left the current owner in a "spot". She did not want or need the expense of another mare and foal. A foal that came with a $6500.00 stud fee due. So she came to us with the hope of finding her a home before her foaling date in May. I put the word out, and contacted Carrie Hall, who also put the word out. Carrie had taken "Misty Maggie"earlier this year. Long story short, with the caring network of horsemen and women I received an e-mail from Kentucky. Regal Baby will be foaling out in Kentucky, her new home. Her current owner Paul, is very interested in making sure the foal is registered, and promised to give Regal a permanent home.
 
Thank you to all concerned!
