After cross country

After a day on cross country watching the great rides, we decided to try to find a place called Thoroughbred Park - Kim had read about in a magazine. Thank goodness for Kate's GPS, we found it. Place is a gem! A small corner park, with lots of statues and plaques about the greats in the thoroughbred industry. Great history lesson!Not just race horses here!

A great scene of horses thundering down the race track. So detailed were these life size statues, it was amazing. 

So well done, you can see the buckles, straps, even the type of shoes on the horses feet and which kind of boot or wraps they were on their legs. 

And this little foal, hidden behind the bushes...
