Happy 2016!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Cheers to a new year, everyone! Here at New Beginnings we’re super excited for all of the awesome things to come. 

2016 is starting off well for us with the exciting arrival of two new horses! 

Cosmo Storm, “Cosmo”, is a 2012 Gelding who last raced on November 17, 2015. He had 13 starts in his career with 2 Firsts, 0 Seconds and 1 Third. Along with his devastating good looks (if we do say so ourselves) he’s also sweet as pie. So far we’ve determined that being groomed and cuddling are amongst his favorite activities. We’re so excited to bring this boy along and see what he has to offer! 


Fancy Schmancy boy. 

*drool*


Along with Cosmo came Light Weight, lovingly given the barn name “Lilly”. Lilly is a 16.1hh 2010 mare who last raced on June 15, 2015. She had 16 starts on the track with 1 First, 1 Second and 0 Thirds. This beautiful girl is just the sweetest and has a serious affinity for treats! 

No, really. She loves cookies. 

      

Someone discovered the joys of jumping. WOW!

These two lovely creatures are very exciting prospects for us and we’ve already started some work with them. Both horses began evaluations for re training shortly after Christmas and both proved to be beautiful movers!  
So here we are, January 1st! It’s finally turning into winter here in NJ, which means cold wind and short days. But we got through December with some pretty nice weather, so we’re hoping our luck continues. As it is we’ll slowly begin training with these two wonderful horses and bringing them back to work. We have some exciting ideas to start the New Year and we can’t wait for 2016 to play out all the wonderful plans we have! 

So from us at New Beginnings Thoroughbreds to you, Happy New Year! We and our horses wish you and yours good health and plentiful happiness this year! Stay tuned for the fun to come.
