Pre entry for sale
« on: August 08, 2011, 02:47:58 PM »
with GREAT pain... I must offer my pre entry for sale.

Life just dealt me a double blow, that has me staggering.
My best Irish Sport horse, Lyric suffered a head injury, that took his life. He died in my arms after a tremendous, lengthy fight for his life. He was the definition of stoic!
I raised and trained him. He was 9 this year.

The loss has left a huge void in my heart... and my bank account. No regrets, but I'm tapped out.
 
I'll be thinkin of you great racers.

GODSPEED LYRIC

Really sorry to hear about your loss, we lost two dogs last year. It takes a long time to get over. May he be at peace in horse heaven :-(

Always tough to lose a critter that you are especially attached to.
Sorry to hear about your horse, and your need to pass on coming out to Bonneville.

thanks fellow troopers!

I'll miss it... and all of you.

I'm thinking that on Saturday 13th, I'll apply some choice vodka to my wounded parts.

I'll toast to everybody's safe racing and Lyrics safe passage.

Bobby Green purchased the pre entry.
Go Bobby GO !!!

Jeff & Star - As fellow horse and horsepower freaks...having met you during our dark horse days, our hearts are in our throat. As soon as I read your post to Frank, he took treats out to the herd - just because he could.  We will sorely miss you, and look for your return to the salt flats.  We treasure the stories you two shared about Lyric and his amazing athletic abilities.  As horse freaks..we are with you in spirit.
