Women ? they can leave you guessing. I also have a few secretes that I have not told her Like I rode several winners also help[ed to train some horses for the great huntsman Henry Gordon

Napoleon didn't buy any of those old Piebald Tinkers Horses most end up in meat Factories An Irish Draught would be hard to find this fair
