From Michael.....

It's always great when people associated with our retirees stop by the farm. Kent Desormeaux spent a few hours visiting with his old pals Afternoon Deelites and Danthebluegrassman. The owners of Westmoreland Road and Judge's Case came by and fed them carrots and we expect more visitors through the Keeneland meet.
  We've re-arranged some of the horses by moving from Merefield to Nuckols Farm. It's really a thrill to watch the great ones, including Dinard, Diamond Stripes, Tour of the Cat and Summer Attraction...running around for the fun of it.
   Cornett and Associates has nailed down the adjacent property and they think they'll be able to purchase additional acreage running all the way to Ironworks Pike. This would be a boon to us because we'd be able to double our current Dream Chase Farm population and establish the long-term financial health of Old Friends. We plan on additional lots to be sold to benefit the farm. We need to raise $100,000 over the next two months to put up fencing and waterers. The horses need you more than ever. If this plan works.. and I see no reason why it won't, we won't have to spend the rest of our lives begging for donations.
   It's a cool, beautiful day in the Bluegrass. Commentator and his new paddock mate, Fabulous Strike, put in their joyous morning gallops under the urging of their neighbor, Star Plus. Thank you so much for allowing me to do what I do.
