Besilu Farm

Besilu Farm is located near Orange Lake, Florida. It is about 600 acres in size and is owned by Benjamin Leon. While the recession is hurting us normal folks, Mr. Leon has added two young colts to his barn at jaw-dropping prices, considering our economy. I realize that the US economy needs folks to spend money to help the economy - and the thoroughbred industry really needs some new enthusiasts who have money to spend. On 3 August at the Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Select Yearling Sale, Mr. Leon bought a bay colt by A.P. Indy, out of US Sprinting Champion Maryfield, for $1.2 million. This is Maryfield's first foal. Yesterday Mr. Leon sent another infusion into the racing industry by purchasing a bay colt by A.P. Indy, out of the Grade 1 winner Balance, for $4.2 million. This is also the first foal out of Balance, and the colt was sold at the Keeneland September Yearling Sale. Thanks for spending some good money for some great looking horse flesh, Mr. Leon!
All kits and dogs are well. I've got to get myself in gear and pack for the overnight stays and get Jimmy's birthday stuff together, too. Take care!
