Cross country in a down coat … it was really that cold! I think I’m still trying to defrost from the weekend in North Carolina. I feel like I may never warm up again. Kudos to the riders and hard working grooms who kept going out there all weekend. I, personally, am very much looking forward to some Southern California sunshine at Galway Downs this weekend.

Education saves lives. This proved again to be true when online training helped many Canadian trainers change their horse management practices to work to prevent colic. [Online course helps combat killer colic in horses]
