NEVER expect. They have a farm they "visit" on the edge of the Cape.
Then Mary Tyler Moore has palominos, she was talking about them on
Letterman last week, and she keeps them at home in Connecticut.
Christy Brinkely (Joel?) has cutting horses, and rode them at the
National a few years ago as a demonstration sport.
Former quarterback of the Steelers, Terry Bradshaw raises QHs.
Just a few I have spotted.

Ps. Reba MacIntire (very bad spelling!) was a rodeo queen and a barrel
racer as a youngin', probably still gets on a horse or two once in a
while too.

Fino horses and owns a breeding farm. He
was at the Paso Fino Nationals in Georgia
in September and there was a line a mile long
of people waiting for his autograph and to
see him ride.
Jack Youngblood (the former football player)
once owned the Grand National Pleasure Champion Paso
Fino, but I think he is out of the breed now. (The
horse was National Champion Pleasure Stallion
"Gaviota del Cardo", now at stud at Greener
Pastures Ranch near Tallahassee; owner is Robin
Ratliff.)

Thought you would be interested to know, Charlie Watts, of Halsdon
Arabians, Devonshire England also owns the dam to my stallion. Gai Biesha
is owned by Charlie. Biesha is by Bey Shah out of a full sister to Gai
Parada, 1977 National Champion Stallion. Gai Biesha was 1991 Scottsdale
champion mare prior to being sold to Halsdon Arabians. She was bred and
owned by Gainey Arabians. Gainey's bred her twice the last cross being to
Gai Parada. Out of that cross came my stallion Gai Dynasty 1991 Bay, and
he is the last born son of Gai Parada.

Mary Tyler Moore has QH/Palaminos...she was on the David Letterman show
or something like that and showed a picture of her new Palamino

Melissa Gilbert is crazy about horses.
Brooke Shields rides English.
Robert Wagner bought a paint cutting mare from a friend of mine for
one of his daughters who is now an actress. Sorry, I forgot his
daughter's name.
Don't forget about Christopher Reeve. I thought he was terrific at
the Oscars, BTW.
I'm really stretching my memory on this one but I believe Rap musician
MC Hammer owns atleast one TB race horse.
Former Dallas judge turned TV commentator, Catherine Crier of ABC
rides QH cutting horses.
Bill Gate's horse can be seen by anyone with Windows 95.
My mother says she first heard of Ross Perot many years ago through
the nationally-ranked show horses that he owned. I think he had
gaited horses...Saddlebred, National Show Horses? something like
that.
I don't know about everywhere, but it seems that in Texas just about
everyone with an ungodly amount of money either owns, shows or races
horses. This was especially true prior to changes in the federal tax
laws during the 80's.

Ferrari's Picasso. Not sure if he or one ofhis family is going toshow her, or

with Judy Campbell back in the early 90s; has also shown successfully in
western pleasure and country pleasure. I believe lately she has been shown
strictly western.
William Devane, the actor, is a rated Arabian judge so I also assume he has
arabians. It was very hard to concentrate on my performance at the show where I
showed under him! (When I saw his name in the premium book, it never occured to
me it was the SAME William Devane the actor.)
Billy Crystal has a QH; I believe it is the horse he rode in the film City

I think that Paul Newman bought what was then The Hill and
is now Old Salem Farm in upstate NY as an East Coast base
for his daughter back in the late 70's (guessing on the date).
They did a wonderful renovation of the facility.

arabs or Western, I just find it unusual that they all seem to do the

Also I remember an interview of Robert Redford where he was
sanding by a corral with some of his horses... they looked

Dan Issel (formerly of the Denver Nuggets) raises Thoroughbreds (that's
his nickname too).
Bruce Springsteen bought some about 3 years ago, a variety of horses
selected for him by Julie Krone (a friend of mine used to work at the
farm across the street from his new farm in NJ. She said that Bruce said
he can't ride worth a ____ but he has fun:-)
Mary Alice Malone (who owns parts of several companies, including Godiva
Chocolates and Campbell Soup) has oodles of warmbloods & rides Grand Prix
Dressage.
I don't know if John Denver still owns horses, but he used to. When I
worked for Michael Poulin, I used to ride Left Hand Man, an appy stallion
John used to own, and he's on one of John's album covers.
Mary McHugh
shock-jock NY's Don Imus who most recently was in trouble over a speech he

horses.
The Von Trapps of "Sound of Music" fame have horses -- drafts I think.

Lee Hough
Pittsburgh Penguins captain - the great Mario Lemieux has a grey
Trakhener (I think, could be Hanoverian) I saw him in a video when I was
looking at stallions. The horse was by a local stallion, Pik Immer. The
colt could've been registered Oldenburg or somthing else - the breeder
seems to have a few different breeds of mares and cross registers.
Also, I believe I read Steven Segal has horses and a ranch in Montana.

I don't think its coincidence. If you have money, you can buy top
trainers and the best horses but you can't really buy horsemanship
skills. Halter and cutting are events where most of the work is done
outside of the arena. IMO the exhibitor in these events are important
but not to the extent of other events such as dressage, jumping, and
reining. If you have more money than experience and want to be big in
horses quickly, halter and cutting are a good place to be competing.

Actually, I've wondered about this. I always loved the descriptions of
the Mitford "child hunts," where a child substituted for the fox. Could
you "cut" an irritating younger sibling without damaging it enough to get
in trouble with Mom? Would any aspect of the training transfer to
working cattle, or would Sis run too differently? I know the herding folks
in dogdom have been known to practice on the odd duck; can horse people
have the same option of flexibility?
BTW, note I am *not* suggesting practicing calf-roping. I have some
scruples--although I don't have a younger sister, and you can decide for
yourselves whether that was always true...

Of course, it can be done without damaging them. Provided they don't
have hock and stifle problems to begin with, why do you think they
call them "horse people". ;-)

Golly gee Rico...I just had a kid. No way I'd cut this or cut that. Too

At Troika's stable, it's actually a summer camp. Maybe Troika and I
have found a new activity for next summer (when I'm home and
retired!!). <VEG> There's a whole summer's supply. Why, we could
even think of having next summer's Bogbash there. (heheheh, Poor
Jennifer. She wouldn't know what's hitting her. <BEG>)

In response to a question about which celebritys are horse fanciers I know
of two who were active several years ago. I not sure if they are still
involved. Wayne Newton - Arabian Horses and Patrick Swayze (sp?) - Arabian
Horses. They both have been involved in showing at the International
Arabian Horse Association National Show.

Doesn't William Shatner also have arabians? I could have sworn i've
seen him on some.
Kenny Rogers used to have and show arabians. I don't know if he still has
any, but i don't think he shows them any more. (i could be wrong, of course)

He has Arabians. Saw him and a couple of his horses while on a tour of a

Wasn't that the horse that was named after Mel Brooks that broke down and
had to be destroyed??

Calvin's wife, Kelly, shows some really nice hunters - she
has won at big shows like the Hampton Classic. And speaking
of the Hampton Classic, Calvin Klein has sponsored a
jumping class there for the past few years.

Re: MC Hammer's Horse
His colt was named Dance Floor, and finished third in the
1992 Kentucky Derby, and also placed in the Preakness, I think.
He was trained by D. Wayne Lukas, the current "Mr. Controversy"
of racing. (People either love him or hate him.) Lukas also
trained some other horses for Hammer's Oaktown Stable, such as
the gelding Media Plan. Last I heard of Dance Floor, he was sold
for stud duty to New Zealand or Australia.
The horse, Mr. Brooks, who broke down in the Breeders' Cup
Sprint a few years ago, was oened by friends of the Brooks'. I
don't remember them being recognizable celebrities. The horse
was destroyed after the accident, and jockey Lester Piggot was
seriously injured.

Yeah but whether he appreciates or even knows what said racehorse looks
like is another debate. More likely it's just been the in thing to do lately.

While I go along with the outright absurd humour of the situation, I
have problems with spreading false rumours. On principle. Especially
having been on the receiving end of a couple "dillys".
Having fun at the absurdity of a situation is different.

No, it really is true. The horse's name was Dance Floor and D. Wayne Lukas
trained him. The horse drew #17 (out of 19) in the Derby and drew the
outside post in the Preakness, which is the next Triple Crown race. I save
newspaper clippings on racing, and I have one from USA Today about
this...the headline says "Hammer's family fumes about post draw." It was
pretty stupid though, because the horse ended up doing pretty well...3rd
in the Derby and 4th in the Preakness.
Hammer's family also had a really good filly about this time named Lite
Light. I haven't heard about them having any horses recently, though.
Maybe they gave up because they thought the sport was too racist (yeah,
right!!!).
