YOUTH LEAGUE STABLE BIOGRAPHIES
Ima Hit
 Ima Hit was spotted at a public auction last fall. How could you miss his stunning looks and wonderful personality? But, the bidding was fierce and HHYF did not get to take him home. Thanks to our wonderful friend Esther, however, we found out he was for sale again this spring but now living in West Virginia. Some quick telephone calls and horse trading over a weekend and HHYF is now the proud owner. We need to find him a barn name, allow him some time to adjust to the program and get settled in. This summer excitement will be high as we discover the specialness of this – HRYL’s first every grey representative!

Dusty Sensation
 Dusty is still “green” and inexperienced but is learning her lessons on how to be a race horse and polite to kids too. From the moment she was spotted as a baby, Dusty had a presence, a class, quality of regalness. With a little experience that can only come with age, we hope she develops into a shining star.

Jessica Direct
 Jessica has a couple of years under her belt and is on her way to adjusting to the “summer life of a rock star” while traveling with HRYL. She’s a quick-study of people personalities and hasn’t turned into the diva yet so let’s hope she doesn’t turn into the fiery-red head stereotype.

Jandi's Tuff As Sky
 We shortened his name to Tuffy – but he’s not! He comes from northern Indiana with several road miles under his belt already and one HRYL season under his belt. One thing we have discovered about Tuffy is that his attitude is much improved after lunch!

Justaway
 Justaway’s back as the solid sidewheeler of HRYL, having missed 2007 due to colic surgery. As one of the senior members of the HRYL team, Justaway expresses herself very well which makes her valuable and a good teacher of horse language.

CD's Miss M
 Missy is new to the HRYL program in 2009 but raced a few times in 2008. She was spotted at the sale as standing patiently even when the horse next to her was misbehaving bigtime. We’ll just have to see how she expresses her personality when surrounding by loving arms.

Sweet Karen
 Karen is the stable’s blond – seeing as she’s palamino. She’s excitable and prances even at the walk. She loves attention…and eating…and she’s constantly on a restricted diet due to her chubbiness.

Mike Arnold
LR Trixie
 Trixie is just one cute little girl. She was raised by a family full of kids and she seems to thrive on the attention. She’s brave and quiet but doesn’t have a bunch of track experience so we’ll have to be patient as she learns her lessons.

Tom Simmons Stable, Springfield IL
Royal Attire
 We did a little “horse trading” to get Art for the program. He raced 28 times in 2007 but had a year of vacation in 2008. When we picked him up, we noticed his unusual markings – we’re anxious to see how he looks when he sheds all his winter hair – sure to be one handsome fellow!
