We spent about three or four months working on putting Horse Racing Treasures together .  When we started out we thought we would have it together in no time.  To our surprise it  took a great deal more time, work and effort, not to mention a sizeable investment to get Horse Racing Treasures up and running.  Though it has been a lot of work, we have learned a great deal and enjoyed the growth.  When it comes right down to it, it has actually been fun.   At the end of the day, even though we're tired, it's a good kind of tired for we have created something.  Now we have the pleasure of watching it grow.                                             

At the top of each page you see "Lots O Loot", the mare and "Harlequina", the filly.  We owned and trained "Lots O Loot" until she was retired to breed.  As a brood mare she had two foals.  "Harlequina, the second foal, we kept & raced.  Mary Ellens' sister Judith & her husband Sal Catanzarite were co-owners & what a proud group we were when "Harlequina" did "Lots O Loot" proud & won a race and broke her maiden.  "Harlequina" is the granddaughter of "Seattle Slew", one of the all time greats, both as a runner and a sire.
