EMERALD ISLE FARM

SERVICES

MARE CARE:  Let us take care of your mare during her pregnancy.  When the foal is born we will video tape and photograph at your request.  The foal will receive daily handling to ensure a calm and "people-friendly" nature.

FOALING:  We require at least one month before the due date to ensure nothing will happen to the foal during shipping.  We will keep a close and careful eye on your mare for all signs of distress during these difficult final days of pregnancy.  With our experienced foal watchers as well as our vet on call 24 hours a day, we can ensure that we will do everything possible to bring a healthy foal into this world.  We specialize in maiden and problem mares.

BREAKING:  We have several capable riders who are experienced in the "art" of breaking.  In order to develop a winning attitude, we will take the time to gently introduce your horse into a relationship with its rider which will ensure a less stressful breaking experience.  This way, we will facilitate many years of potential earnings.

SALES PREP:  Our team of grooms will take your sales horse and groom it to the sharpest looking equine to step onto the sales ring.  With daily grooming and nightly turn-out, your investment is in great hands and you will be very satisfied with our results.

LAY-UPS:  Send us your tired, hurt or legthargic racers and we will once again put that closing kick in them.  We will medicate your horse, massage it, and start it back into training when the time is right.  We will also give you weekly updates on the progress of your horse.

TRAINING:  Our trainer is Patrick McGurk.  His experience has started with being an assistant trainer for Joe Orseno for 5 years.  He has taken care of such stake horses as Double Diplomat, Memorable Mitch, and Bodacious Tatas.  As a trainer, he has had a 60% in the money record.  He has had a feature article written about his success as a trainer in the Daily Racing Form on March 28, 1997.
