Metallic Oil

DERBY DAY- RUN FOR THE ROSES 🌹
Been blessed to have a multitude of discipline of horses in the Equine industry and The Racetrack holds a special place always in my heart being around some of the greatest horsemen God ever put in this buisness.

Having spent many years in this industry, I continue to be amazed by the excitement I feel when the starting gates open. These horses dedicate their lives to reaching this moment, and its been an honor the incredible horsemen and women I have worked with in this industry and the horses I have been involved with or worked in the presence of. So I encourage you to tune in, even if you are not familiar with horse racing, it is undoubtedly the most thrilling two minutes in the world of athletics, and you will be glad you watched.

God Bless everybody’s ride this weekend. 🏆🙏🐎

- Happy Tuesday from Metallic Oil!! 🤠😎

Rest Peacefully, Jim Carola 🙏🙏, a good man.

Reshared from Bobby Hunt’s Post:

I just got the sad news that my old friend and customer Jim Carola has passed away. Jim was the news director for the radio station KILT in Houston for many years as well as the announcer for the Houston Oilers games and then the Texans. Jim came to me at my barn in Simonton and said he had been invited to participate in the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo Celebrity Cutting, I asked him how much riding experience he had and he said “none” Well I started giving him lessons and we got him through it. Jim loved it so much that within a year he had sold his home in Houston and bought a small ranch not more than 3 or 4 miles from my barn. Jim went on to buy several horses and cutting became his lifelong passion. Jim owned a Docs Hickory stud ( Cool
Hand Hickory) that Trey hauled one year and made the Top Ten in the Open which I think was the highlight of Jim’s cutting career. You were a good man Jim ,and a better friend. You’re now where the horses are good, the ground is soft and the cattle are fresh. We’ll see you on the other side my friend 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️

Stay tuned….

Happy New Year from this barn to yours!
Here is to a healthy, hopeful and prosperous New Year, Friends! Hope it’s a great one for everybody! 👏🎄🎉🥂🎁🇺🇸

Trainers of all discipline; Here is what
A $5M Yearling looks like: Congrats to all the connections! Too Expensive for most people’s pocketbooks no doubt, but happy for the beloved industry and simply a beautiful filly.

By Curlin Out of the incredible Cavorting, Grade l Winner.

This is what $5,000,000 looks like 🤩 During Tuesday’s session of the Keeneland September Yearling Sale, Book 1, a yearling c**t by Curlin out of Grade I winner Cavorting sold for $5 million to Mandy Pope’s Whisper Hill Farm. Consigned by Indian Creek, agent for Stonestreet Farm Bred & Raised, the chestnut is a full brother to multiple Grade I winner CLAIRIERE. He is the most expensive c**t to sell at Keeneland since Meydan City sold for $11.7 million in 2006. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for this special c**t! ⭐️

Good Morning from Metallic Oil’s Barn this morning! Have a Blessed Day!
