Diversify is enjoying his first spring at Cabin Creek, having joined us last summer..
This spring, we welcomed Victorious Leader, whom we call Victor, to our herd. Victor made three trips to the winner’s circle as a race horse, earning over $100,000. He was trained by Keith O’Brien and then later by his father, the late Leo O’Brien.
If I dare say, he looks a little like Secretariat!
