Bio:
When we first bought Tee, we were only looking for a nice broodmare
who could maybe also be used as a pleasure horse. Tee settled in
well at Justice Acres, and although she wasn't particularly flashy,
became a favorite around the barn. Just for kicks, we suddenly decided
to entered her in a couple races. Much to our surprise - although Tee
placed low in the opinion classes - she blew us all away by winning
race after race that we entered her in. Since then, she has become as
much of a success as any other racers that we have trained, and has
competed in two Breeders Cup Races. She came in second to Abstract
Artist in the Filly & Mare turf, after being unable to hold off the younger
filly. But her second shot came in the form of the Breeders Cup Distaff,
where she managed to keep her head in front of Regency to sweep the win!
Happy to end on that note, Mr. Duce retired his favorite horse from
the races, although he is still keeping her with something to do. Tee is
still his favorite pleasure mount, and she is still working with the young
trainees to keep them in line. Tee has so many wonderful traits that she
passes on to her foals, and has become a wonderful broodmare. Her only
two vices, is that she will never stand still for the farrier, and is a terror
to bring in from the pasture. But it's not uncommon to see Tee hanging
out with Mr. Duce's children, and snoozing in the paddock with one
of Justice Acre's zonked out beside her. It’s obvious to see that Tee loves
her job from the eager way she prances out of her stall in the morning, and
she has many more years at Justice Acres to live out her life – here’s to your
happy ending, pretty girl!
