Great article----   I didn't know  the Lewis's left money so that Silver Charm would be taken care of-- that

Was a wonderful thing to do. 

I didn’t know ( or remember) either! He is one lucky and smart boy, he’s with someone who understands him and loves him dearly!

I didn’t realize they had opened an Old Friends in Japan?! I get their newsletters and just don’t remember reading about it.

Daaher pensioned to Old Friends 

Retired from racing in 2008 following an ankle injury, the Canadian-bred son of Awesome Again out of the Canadian stakes winner Irish Cherry, was best known for his upset win over the heavily favored Midnight Lute in the 2007 GR1 Cigar Mile at Aqueduct.

In his two seasons on the track, Daaher collected earnings of $455,163 under trainer Kiaran McLaughlin, and won both the Cigar Mile and the GR2 Jerome Handicap. He retired with 4 wins and 2 thirds from 9 starts.

Originally standing at Shadwell’s Nashwan Stud in Lexington, Daaher was relocated to Circle H Farms, Abbeville, LA in 2019 before being pensioned.

"We're grateful to Shadwell for allowing us to care for this great son of the late Adena Springs-Old Friends stallion, Hall of Famer, Awesome Again,” said Old Friends President Michael Blowen. “He accomplished so much in his brief career. I know his fans will be excited to see him." 

I receive an email about this! Enjoy your retirement Daaher...

A little off subject, I found in my "horse boxes" a large book I sent for about Old Friends a number of years ago. Quite nice, indeed.

Is that the book with photos by Barbara Livingston?

A sculpture of Medina Spirit will be carved from a tree on the property At Old Friends in Georgetown

 - I know Baffert loved that horse-- just lovely

Dose she have one?

The book I have is written on newspaper and very large photos of the roster of horses they had at the time. I will it up so I can let you know the title. It was directly issued by Old Friends and the Daily Racing Form.
