    I'm dreaming right now! Looking at this with this music playing I can see myself galloping through green pastures. Me & my horse Calypso are one & we ride like the wind.

    Love the music (Eya’s Storms in Africa is one of my favorite songs). Love the images. These are some of the best stallions in the world. I must go there someday.

    I've went there it's really easy to get a tour when someone in your family works there

      It’s really easy for the general public to get a tour. They have a website where you can just book the tour.

    I've been to the best horse farms in & around Lexington, KY. Ashford Stud (now Coolmore) is one of the most beautiful. Hands-down, amazingly scenic, with the best TB's in the world. It's also a breeding factory, running their shed till after midnight, shipping stallions to the S. hemisphere during the off-season. Most miserable, unhappy group of top-grade TB's I've *ever* seen in the bluegrass. The group I saw (including FuPeg) faced their back stall walls when approached by visitors. Be wary!

      I was under the impression Ashford doesn't give tours unless you have a mare you want to breed. I like Three Chimneys, they continue to gallop their stallions under saddle

      No... they give tours 7 days a week to the public. You just have to book them online. It’s on their website

    • @SportDogg2008

      @AzeriZ1 It's still Coolmore (Coolmore America) We just call it Ashford Stud because you got Coolmore Australia and Coolmore in Ireland all own by the same people Some of these Stallions will fly to Australia and get booked there and fly back during our season and stay here

    Note tgd name, Stud. This the correct usage of the word. It's where stallions stand to service mares.
    Male horses are correctly called "stallions ". Stud is used incorrectly to define "stallions:
    Real horse 🐴 people know thus.

      +bigstride27 I'm not sure... But Alydar had a 16x18 foot stall. He was the top sire of Calumet at the time, though... But I'm guessing close to that.

  • @AzeriZ1
    @AzeriZ1 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Compare this to the farm across the way...3 stallion-to-mare bookings a day (very rarely a 4th). Half the year off for the stallions to relax and romp. Very luxurious and fitting retirement for these champions. The minute they weren't well or "up" to the task, they were put on limited/restricted duty. It was all about the horse and his wellness. Not to mention the fact that overpopulating the gene pool does no one any good!

    • @susanfowler8527
      @susanfowler8527 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      AzeriZ1 It is also about respect for the animal.. I get so furious to see a former world champion attached Louisville still being pushed in the ring on Saturday night, only to place eighth out of eight. Sheer disrespect. All things in moderation if you want a happy healthy horse who can give you the desired results.

    @Antoinette733 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What's disturbing is they all look like they're in fancy 'jails'. Why aren't these horses let loose?! Enjoying the gorgeous scenery, out there roaming around, socializing with other horses? Just lonesome, lush scenery -- for what!? for only visitors to enjoy? Sickening.

    • @gillespie8575
      @gillespie8575 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Because they are stud stallions some worth 10s of millions. They aren't let loose into fields until retirement. Because the risk of injury is too high.

      Antoinette I AGREE WITH YOU 100%!!!!!! These POOOOR HORSES spend their lives in jail and then are FORCED into mating in an unnatural way. STUD FARMS ARE ANIMAL CRUELTY...ALL OF THEM!!!!! This is a TOTALLY UNNATURAL way for horses to live! It's absolutely criminal!!!!
