Huntress seeks prey. Applications being accepted during 2012 racing season.


Conversation that took place at Otsego Farms recently between an Australian stable owner and Jim Webber...


"Jingoes! Who is that fine little filly over there, Mate?"

"The chestnut? That's Huntress."

"By Big Easy out of Shadowcat, right?"

"Very good, my friend. I'm impressed."

"You think I'm a few sandwiches short of a picnic? She looks like a corker Mate."

"She is. She'll do any surface and definitely has at least 10 furlongs in her."

"Struth?"

"On the book brother. Looks like she'll be ready early too."

"She for sale?"

"Nope."

"Let's head to the pub for a schooner Mate. I'll shout. We can talk about Huntress...."

"You're buying? Sweet, I'll have the Ferrari brought around."

"There'll be Sheila's, right? We better scrub up."

"You got a one track mind pal. Remember what happened in Japan?...."

Well Foxie, it might have been Finlay, but of course I can't name any names.

By the way, this is not meant to belittle Aussies in any way. Just trying to inject a little humor. :)
