Re: RC: Reaction to Vaccine

["JABASK KNIGHT" <hikryrdg@evansville.net>]

Julie and Jim, Hey hows it going?  About 3 years ago we had a swelling is
the front legs(stiffle area) on Saki.  Took her to a race, had her in a new
pasture, the next am, she was swollen and lame.  Never did figure out what
hit her.  In a week she was fine.  You never know I guess.  How about a Jim
and Bruno report?  Jim are you going to Haihira?  Jerry
