The Blood-Horse
The Blood-Horse is a weekly news magazine published by Blood-Horse Publications that originated in 1916 as a monthly bulletin put out by the Thoroughbred Horse Association. In 1935 the business was purchased by the American Thoroughbred Breeders Association. Since 1961 it has been owned by the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, a non-profit organization that promotes Thoroughbred racing and breeding.
Based in Lexington, Kentucky, the publication's media kit states that the magazine "coverage includes race reporting, comprehensive analysis, events, trends, debate, farm management, pedigrees, people, profiles, medication issues, investigative reports, and breeding news and information, and anything newsworthy and important to the racing and breeding industry."ESPN has called The Blood-Horse the thoroughbred industry's most-respected trade publication.
The magazine won acclaim for its exclusive report indicating that 1986 Kentucky Derby winner Ferdinand had been slaughtered by his owners overseas after a marginal stud career. The news resulted in increased efforts to save retired racehorses.

The Horse
by: Alessi's ArkI was told that kite flying's for lovers
I was told that we can't share the covers
If you'd like me to
I'll try to be brave like you
I know you'd like me to
I'll try to be pretty too
I was told that you rest with another
Weren't you told son, that that's wrong by your mother?
If you'd like me to
I'll try to be brave like you
I know you'd like me to
I'll try to be pretty too
If what you mean's so true
Why let invertebrates cling to you?
If what you hold loves you
Why're you watching the horse pass you?
