The History of Old Friends by Rick Capone

Like many before him in the Bluegrass State, Michael Blowen, a former “Boston Globe” entertainment writer, fell in love with horses, specifically Thoroughbreds. When he opened the Thoroughbred retirement farm Old Friends in Kentucky in 2003, he never dreamed his idea would grow so big, so fast. Today, Old Friends is home to more than 130 horses, many of them stallions, as well as geldings, mares and one loveable miniature horse named Little Silver Charm. Join journalist and horse lover Rick Capone for the story of Old Friends and the horses that call the farm home.

Celebrating Old Friends by Rick Capone

This sequel to the author’s History of Old Friends revisits the unforgettable history of this horse retirement home. When Michael Blowen first dreamed of creating Old Friends, he envisioned a place where Thoroughbred stallions could retire with dignity following their racing or breeding careers. He also wanted people to visit the iconic
horses. In 2003, vision became reality when Old Friends opened on leased land with a miniature horse named Little Silver Charm, a gelding named Invigorate and a mare named Narrow Escape. Today, the two-hundred-plus-acre farm in Georgetown has more than 130 retired Thoroughbred stallions, geldings and mares, including two Kentucky Derby winners.

Old and New Friends by Barbara D. Livingston

When Barbara Livingston’s first Old Friends book was released in 2002, the simple concept of chronicling famous and some not-so-famous Thoroughbreds in their senior years lit a spark within horse-racing aficionados and further editions followed. Now, Livingston brings us Old and New Friends, featuring nearly 100 retired horses including Old Friends retirees Ogygian (cover), dual classic winner Silver Charm, champion Hidden Lake, Slamming, Mixed Pleasure and Halo America. And in a slight departure from the earlier editions, Livingston also features some younger subjects this time, including the 2009 Horse of the Year Rachel Alexandra and the 2015 Triple Crown winner American Pharoah.
