I JUST BOUGHT MY TICKET

[GTs]

To Florida for the last week in January to spend a week with Michael Matz and his team training race horses. I can not wait!!!

If you are not familiar - he is a US Hall of Fame Show jumper, has won an awful lot in show jumping including an Olympic medal, 4 golds in the Pan American games, etc. He was competition at the international level for 20+ years!! More recently he has been training race horses, including the 2006 KY Derby winner Barbaro (who suffered a major injury in the Preakness) and more recently Round Pond in the Breeders Cup. Michael is about as classy as it comes - I can not wait!!
