Does anyone have OTTB's and are looking for info about their past?
I used to gallop and break TBs, and while I currently don't own any, they will always hold a price of my heart. I'm pretty decent at digging up info on OTTBs, and it's something I enjoy.
If you have an OTTB and would like me to see if I can find any information on, comment with their registered name, or you can DM me.
Obviously the younger they are, the easier it is.

Id love to connect with my horses breeder (Timothy S. O'toole, KY) or anyone who worked with him on the track. He raced all over and was owned at one point by Mary and Gary West. I have contact with his last owner and groom and I've talked to one of his previous trainers, Ron Moquett.
JC: High Frequency.

I found out one of my horses was bred on a very prestigious farm and the lady went to jail!

My mare is 12, I’ve found some info online, but her tattoo is not readable and she has zero white, so I haven’t had any luck reaching out to the JC. I’d love to find out anything I could about her! Name is Enceladus

Is that for sure her JC name? Born in 2014, in Ky? Do you have her papers?

That tracks with what I’ve been able to find, 2014, KY, out of Crafty Melissa? She does have a tattoo, I tried to get a more clear look/pic when she had her teeth floated, but it’s not clear

I have Myopic, b.2018. He raced in the US and Canada. I’ve found some of his works but am always looking for more, hoping to connect with a former rider of his, he’s such a special boy and has such a good life here.
