Hi Leo
Are you the same Leo whom I videotaped at Donna Snyder-Smith's? If so I
have your video but lost your address. Brazil??
Thanks so much for the info RE: Pico. I'm really rooting for him. His
dam died in foaling out last year but I am half owner of his full
sister. Too bad he's a gelding.
Good luck in your race (although I still want my boy to win).
Bette
