She was awesome [on the racetrack] and she is awesome looking. She=s by Medaglia d=Oro, who I think is one of the best sires, particularly with fillies, as she proved.

AWhat I have learned, and what we all know, is plans seldom work in this business,@ Pope said. AYou end up, for whatever reason, keeping the colts, too. So right now, I haven=t gotten anything sold out of Plum Pretty or Havre de Grace. Both the colts had little issues that I didn=t get them sold and that=s the way it goes. You have to be prepared to hang on to them and race them. I haven=t pushed any of my horses and I won=t push any of these. If it comes, it comes.

A kitchen with a balance of design, comfort, and functionality adjoins a breakfast area with floor to ceiling windows and staircase to the lower level, nearly doubling the footprint of the house and creating a feeling of charm and functionality. A lovely family room, with brick fireplace and access to the screen porch and in-ground heated pool, invites you to settle in. A well-appointed full bath, oversized laundry room, home office, craft room, multi-functional space with endless possibilities, and two-car garage complete the lower level. A short walk from the residence is a two-car garage and guest house.

A perfect farm for your main residence or a second home with equipment and furnishings available as well as minimal staff that can continue for an easy transition. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to own a well-thought-out farm in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky.
