News From Willey Farm &
Racing Stable
Spring 2015
K D
Amazin Spirit has been recovering from an operation to pin a broken
sesmoid. He came up lame after his last win. He is now
at Cal Expo training down and looking good.
K D Nicol
finally got his first 2015 win, setting a new life mark of 1:58.2
while doing so. Here he is crossing finish line a length
ahead.
K D MySweetLady has been in qualifiers at 2:08.2, but came up with a knee problem and is turned out on the farm while waiting to determine what needs to be done.
And finally, we are working our two year old, a colt named K D doitwihgusto at Cal Expo. He is out of Cherry Tree Salome, by Claudius Augustis. We expect that Gus will be quite a challenge.

What is Harness Racing?
Harness racing is a worldwide sport where a special breed of
horses, called Standardbreds, race around a track while pulling a
driver in a two-wheeled cart, called a sulky. It is seen in more
than 30 countries by millions of fans who wager more than $3 billion
annually.
