@MollyJoRosen She was really going at it!
The day I took that picture of Biscuits was one of my favorites at Old Friends. She put on quite the show in a mud puddle right after it for one of my favorite/most entertaining shots I've ever taken.
We are sad to share that we have said goodbye to Biscuits With Ham (24). An eight-year resident of Old Friends, she was retired by the George Estate. She produced seven foal, including fellow Old Friends' resident Victory Circle. We will all miss Biscuit.
Some solid moon (and sun) joy going on there!

Multiple stallion farms are celebrating today after their stallions hit it big at a record-breaking @fasigtipton Saratoga with 14 stallions have yearlings bring $1 million+. It was an exceptionally big sale for Into Mischief, who was the sire of five of the top 10 yearlings sold.
Burnham Square joined what has become a rare group of horses in the 2000s as a Grade 1 winner on both dirt and turf after his Arlington Million victory on Saturday. He was the first of two back-to-back G1 Blue Grass S. winners for Liam's Map (@LanesEndFarms) last year as well.
Y su hijo TUSCAN GOLD ganó el domingo 19 un G1 en La Rinconada en 3200 metros por 33 cuerpos de ventaja…
Though Medaglia d'Oro wasn't in the breeding shed this season he's made sure the next chapter of his story is already being written by his sons and daughters. His legacy was on full display Sunday when his sons and daughter had the top three in the G2 Connaught Cup.

@tanyagun @johndgunther Bit of a unique exacta for Glennwood there with the Vino connection!
@LanesEndFarms's 27-year-old Candy Ride may be nearing the end of his stallion career, but the @FasigTiptonCo July Sale showed he's leaving his legacy in good hands with 26% of the yearlings to sell for six figures on Tuesday closely related to the stallion.
Like father, like son. Through the first half of the year, many big-name sires in the U.S. aren't only proving that they're excellent sires of racehorses, but also excellent sires of sires.
As an added bonus, I was able to talk to Go Fast, Do Stupid Stuff's Kendall Hayley about his upcoming Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge ride (check it out, it's awesome) to fundraise for the program as well. The ride sounds very @mongolderbylive in the best way possible.
It was amazing to go out to STEPS With Horses today to see their facility and learn more about their program. Getting a chance to hear more about how they utilize horses to help veterans & children & spend some time with their herd was a great way to start the holiday weekend.
It’s time ... our 2026 HayRaiser is now live! All money raised goes towards purchasing with hay from the exceptional farmers who help keep our horses healthy and happy year-round. You can donate here 👉 donatenow.networkforgood.org/oldfriends?cod…
How about a Pyrois Media Photography then and now for this week's Throwback Thursday? Shoplifted winning the Springboard Mile at @RemingtonPark in 2019 ➡Shoplifted last week at @ValorFarm, where he just completed his fifth season at stud.
Competitive Edge moved to @ValorFarm for the 2021 breeding season and currently leads Texas's standing by winners (25) and progeny earnings this year. Overall, he has 9 crops aged 3 or older with 25 stakes performers led by 15 stakes winners. He has 33 2YOs to come this year.
One of my favorites, Competitive Edge, also stands at @ValorFarm & leads the TX rankings this year. But more importantly for the horse girl in me, he's a big fan of scratches. He had a nice nap when I was scratching his nose before trying to convince himself nap time was over 😂
Last week I stopped by @ValorFarm and met Texas legend Too Much Bling. The Rubiano son is enjoying a well-earned retirement after being officially pensioned in 2023 and currently leads the state's 2026 sire list by SW & SH. Overall, Bling has sired 19.6% SH with 35 SW.
June is the month of Scat Daddy this year with the first three weeks seeing the stallion as the grandsire or damsire of 10 graded/group stakes winners in four different countries, led by five G1 winners.
Justify won from seven furlongs to 1 1/2 miles as a racehorse and he's passing on that versatility to his runners with his three stakes winners on Saturday covering that distance span while finding success on both the dirt and turf.
Did you know @RRP_TBMakeover has an ambassador award for their graduates? The Bill Kraatz Thoroughbred Makeover Ambassador Award celebrates graduates who continue to make an impact on the breed after the Makeover. You can learn more about the award at therrp.org/special-awards.
