Old Friends at Dream Chase Farm的点评
点评:What a lovely day we had visiting this farm. Was so heartwarming to see these beautiful horses living out their days in horse nirvana. We appreciated our hosts B &B a seasoned couple that met and married there at the farm while volunteering. Got to feed some carrots to famous Derby winning horses as well as some other beautiful racers from the past as we heard their stories. . The end for some racehorses is not a good one when they can no longer race or stud. The founder Michael Blowen ( who we were lucky enough to meet) was moved to found this organization after becoming aware of the practice of destroying some older horses. It’s a beautiful location, and while there is a bit of walking, they provided a golf cart to provide rides as needed. Highly recommend spending some time here during your trip to Kentucky.
翻译:今天我们参观了这个农场,真是愉快的一天!看到这些美丽的马儿在“马儿的天堂”里安度晚年,真是暖心至极。我们要感谢热情好客的主人夫妇——他们是一对经验丰富的养马人。他们就是在农场做义工时相识并结为夫妻的。我们还得以给那些曾赢得德比大赛的著名赛马,以及其他一些昔日杰出的赛马喂胡萝卜,同时聆听了它们的传奇故事。不过,对于许多赛马来说,当它们无法再参加比赛或作为种马使用时,结局往往并不美好。创始人迈克尔·布洛恩(我们很幸运能见到他)在了解到有将一些年迈的马匹处决的做法后,深受触动从而创立了这家机构。这里环境优美,虽然需要步行一段距离,但他们还备有高尔夫球车以供需要时使用。强烈推荐大家在肯塔基之旅中抽出些时间来此参观。
