Welcome to Shadow Brook Farms, where the grass is green, the water is clean and the best Thoroughbreds in the country are bred and raised. The barns are top notch, with soft shavings and huge stalls and beautiful oak paneling. The dutch doors are polished to a sheen that seems unnatural and the pastures are huge. With the Triple Crown fast approaching the race horses at Shadow Brook Farms are training harder and even friends are becoming bitter rivals. Will these three races tear you apart?

Rules:
Anyone can control the human except the barn owner, Mr. Lawson. I will play him as an NPC

This is a literate role play. Proper grammar and spelling are mandatory, but a few mistakes now and then are fine.

A TS will occur every Sunday and races are held every day.

When you race the stats of your Thoroughbred will be taken into account with the stats of the horses in the race, for instance if your horse's stats are strong in speed but weak in stamina you would want to enter your horse in a short race for the best outcome

NO OOC ARGUING! I will not stand for that. At all. If you have an issue pm me or the player. If I catch you arguing on thread you WILL be booted.

No perfect characters, god modding, power playing etc... As mentioned above we will take your horse's stats in account when racing so it's fair. Please don't make your horse ridiculously fast.

Relationships are allowed BUT if you're a stud or a broodmare the barn owner will who to breed you to.

Fade to black appropriately and no cursing or harassment. You will get three warnings and if it continues after that you will be booted.

The Triple Crow is for three year olds, but races are run for two and four year olds
Most important of all... BE NICE!

Put your favorite pun in other

Racing Name: Running in Blind Faith
Barn Name: Indy
Likes: Wet track, early mornings, curry comb
Dislikes: Whips, most male humans, small spaces
Personality: Indy is very vocal, making it known that she is there and has needs. She acts tough, trying to prove her worth in a traditionally male dominated sport. Yet she is always there for those she cares about, whether they like it or not.
Looks: 765823111.jpg
source - http://blackwindestates.weebly.com/baroque-stallions.html
Age: 2
Breed: Thoroughbred
Occupation: Racing
History: She was born and raised in another stable, till it became evident to the race officals that some serious mistreatment was going on. Indy had been trained with whips and stuck in a small stall, a terrible fate for such a well bred horse. When she came to Shadow Brook, she was fearful of all the male grooms and trainers. Slowly she has learned to trust some of them, but the fear still resides in her.
Strongest in: Speed
Weakest in: Strength
Other: I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. It's impossible to put down.

Lol! Accepted! About a 'traditionally male dominated sport' one of the announcers during Zenyatta's racing career said 'She turned the sport of kings into a sport of queens'

Likes: Speaking with other horses, apples, light rain on sunny days, playing around in paddocks

Personality: Storm's not a horse for everyone, but she's kind to those she likes. She tends to spend more time with geldings or stallions than other mares, but they know to keep their distance. She can deliver a vicious kick or bite to those who displease her.

|Racing Name|
Jack Daniel's

|Barn Name|
Jack

|Likes|
running, lots of space, carrots, his rider

|Dislikes|
other horses getting too close, lack of exercise, mice, birds, any kind of storm, being bathed

|Personality|
Jack is an incredibly aggressive horse, especially when it comes to other horses. He doesn't mind being ridden - in fact, he loves it when he's racing or practicing for races - or people, but he's sort of a douche towards other horses. He's not as much of a douche unless a horse gets too close, which ends in him either bucking or biting. He's very energetic and gets restless when he's left in his stall for too long. He's mostly quiet but tends to be quite vocal when he's running out of patience, which is a lot.

|Looks|

|Age|
3 years

|Breed|
Thoroughbred

|Occupation|
running, also a stud

|History|
The son of some of racing's best horses, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot and Drunk In Love, Jack excelled at racing ever since he was a colt. He has a few wins behind him, most of them very honourable.

|Strongest Stat|
speed

|Weakest Stat|
stamina

Her owner tried to find homes for all the rescues, and she did. But her owner kept her. And let her heal.
