We’re not crying, you are! 🥹🩷💛
Our recently retired Time Twister has found himself the most unlikely of friends… everyone, meet Dinky! 🐴❤️
The pair have struck up quite the friendship, spending most of their days grazing side by side, with only a fence separating them!
It’s moments like these that make it all worthwhile. There’s nothing better for our owners than seeing their racehorses happy, healthy and flourishing in retirement. 🥹
And before anyone asks… no shares available in Dinky! 🤣🩷💛
