I have an outstanding stable and farm crew, who have contributed so much to our success. Thanks go to all our grooms, barn foremen, longtime assistant trainer and rider Maria Kabel, assistant trainer and rider Matt Hebert, exercise riders Jada Schlenk and Jeff Sisson, and van driver Jim Doss. Thanks also to Ackel Hebert who breaks all our young horses at Victory Haven Training Center near Lexington, KY. Ackel does an extraordinary job breaking the yearlings, being very patient with them and knowing how I want them when they come to me at the track. |
