Not Tom Stull. His distinct recollection of an Irish-bred filly UT 57 named Leccia is of ripping up betting tickets. HARRIS FARMS, INC. “She was one of those horses who would run from 10-15 lengths back,” Stull said. “I WWW.HARRISFARMS.COM remember tearing my tickets up once because it was so frustrating—and she ended up winning. She was so far back, and I threw the tickets on the ground before the end of the CALIFORNIA 61 race. Afterward, I had to look for them and pick them up.” HIGHLAND YARD, LLC Such frustrations aside, Tom and Debi Stull love the game and did venture more ex- WWW.HIGHLANDYARD.NET tensively into ownership. That led to the purchase of acreage in Santa Ynez, Calif., now called Tommy Town Thoroughbreds. 63 The Stulls have created a textbook example of how to succeed in the racing and breed- SPECIAL T THOROUGHBREDS WWW.SPECIALTFARM.COM ing business. They bought the farm in mid- 2000, acquired stallions that fit the market, 59 supported them with their own mares, and TOMMY TOWN THOROUGHBREDS today stand atop the California breeders list, as WWW.TOMMYTOWNFARMS.COM well as high on the national list.
