SWT Top Flight was an exciting stakes winning racehorse for the farm- now siring exciting foals."He was in his prime at this time. This race was at a track in Muskegon, MI. They invited Arabians over for three weekends for sprints. He won two of the three, came in 2nd in the other race. He won this race at Muskegon, then to Mount Pleasant Meadows the next day and won there. Had a great year that year." - owner Joyce Fritz |

Another great stallion gives Hickory Lane Farms, Inc. much to talk about..."Count Galagor+ was used at a stallion exhibition as a breed representative for Arabians. He hadn't been in a crowd in years and he acted wonderfully. Lots of stories to tell about that weekend. This picture was taken at that exhibition," says owner Joyce Fritz. Photo to left: Joyce puts husband Tom to work at the exhibition. |

Count Galagor+ proved himself on the track, proved himself a gentleman, and continued to prove himself as a sire. Photo left, and below, one of Count's offspring ... Counts Magic Spel in the winners circle with owners Joyce and Tom and family and friends. Counts Magic Spel was later sold to a home in Colorado and career in Endurance. Her new owner loves her- see more in her story below! |

"We finally did it!! We completed 1st at Gunnison Lost Miners Endurance Ride-- this was an IAHA Sweepstakes Region 8 competition as well. We also received Best Condition!!! She was awesome!!! Her scores were incredible all day and she worked very, very hard. We had a real aggressive race to the finish it was very close and Countess just gave all the extra gas I needed to get across the line. We completed in 4 hours and 57 minutes. Wanted to send you more bragging rites about your stock. Chat soon!" - JO |
