Purchased a horse over the weekend, another Illinois-bred since I have had so much luck with Yiannoulas Boy. This one is named Parham, 4 year old with only 1 lifetime win. Wanted a younger horse with lots of conditions, and the conditioned claimers in Minnesota go for 4000 - 6000, so that's where he will be racing. I want to use this time left at Cal Expo to get him right. And since Parham is such a goofy name, we are just calling him Bob.

On a more somber note, had to retire Stanza from racing...his physical issues just won't let him be a racehorse so I figured I didn't want to push him any more. He's a big, 7 year old gelding who will be a nice horse in his next life.
