Tropic Pass Was A Winning Race Horse!

Monday morning, January 14, 2008, Barbara Killian stopped by to deliver The Jockey Club papers on Tropic Pass "Ebony". She spent an hour or so with me checking out my horse operation and giving me some much needed and appreciated advice. Thank you Barbara!!

After Barbara left, I spent a few minutes looking at the papers on Tropic Pass and discovered that a winning race had been recorded on the back of the paperwork! On Sunday, January 28, 2007, Tropic Pass won a race at Turf Paradise. Intrigued, I decided to do a Google search and found out that she had indeed won this race: http://www.winningponies.com/results/picks/tips/2007-01-28/Turf-Paradise/6.html

I decided to also search for Dean Esssex (her owner at the time) and I found his blog: http://granitefallsthoroughbreds.blogspot.com/search/label/Washington%20Horse%20farm%20for%20sale

We have exchanged a few emails talking about Tropic Pass and how she ended up with me.

She was under new ownership when Barbara rescued her from the race track in October 2007.

This poor horse has certainly been through a lot in the past year and I sure plan to give her as much tender loving care as I certainly can for the rest of her life!
