Thoroughbred Horses For Sale | Retraining Off-the-Track Thoroughbreds | Success Stories
We just returned from a fabulous trail ride to Garland Mountain in North Georgia. It was only a 30 minute ride from Bits & Bytes Farm and the weather was perfect! The temperatures were cool in the morning but by afternoon they were in the low 70’s. The leaves are beginning to change and the ground was dry. Read more . . .

“Destin” – 2007 chestnut Thoroughbred colt for sale”Destin” is a 2007, 16.1+ hand COLT. He floats across the ground effortlessly. This horse would make a great 3-day event horse. His sire is Point Given who was the 2001 Eclipse Champion and 3 YO Colt & Horse of the Year. He was a massive chestnut colt. Point Given was the only horse in history to have won four 1 million dollar races in a row: the Preakness, the Belmont, the Haskell Invitational and the Travers. This colt is his son — but he can’t run. “Destin” has been a non-winner in nine races so it is time to find him a new career. Could he be your next eventing horse? Read more . . .

We spent a great day today trail riding our Thoroughbreds at the Chickamauga Battlefield with our friends. Today was a perfect fall day just right for a trail ride. There was a nip in the air this morning and the leaves are just starting to change color. It was a kind of day that you will remember in the cold of winter or the heat of the summer. Not too many days are as perfect as today.
We had an interesting group of horses and riders. We took five Thoroughbreds from Bits & Bytes Farm: Pride of the Fox, Monarch’s Reign, Political Pull, Brewster and the wonderful With Wings aka “WWW”. We met up with Bob and Susan Goodman riding their huge warmblood fox hunters. Chase New, our farrier, brought two of his mustangs and his friend Amanda. We had one Western saddle, two bareback riders and five English saddles. Susan decided to ride her hunt horse Henry bareback when challenged by Chase riding bareback on his small mustang. The challenge got tougher when the jumping started. Read the rest of the story . . .

Monarch Reign’s mom Suellen and I recently got back from a road trip where we have been prospecting for horses and checking in on horses we have sold. Suellen purchased a new truck (a Ford F350) in New York and I offered to help get it to Georgia. Because I never get off-the-farm, the two day direct trip home became a three day race track/horse farm adventure with more and more stops to check out Thoroughbreds that will be listed on our Web site.
