Well Takeover Target (aka Archie) is enjoying his retirement at Toofrook.  He is still being cared for as the King he is and looks wonderful.  He is temporarily back with Joe to do some public performances (Lightening Stakes, Melbourne) but will return to Toofrook after.  It certainly is a privelage to have a horse like him to care for.

Prydes Horse Feed manufacturers have generously offered to sponsor the feed for Archies retirement (since it is the best feed on the market and I was feeding it to him anyway!) and have also given him some lovely rugs to wear.  Archie has Pryde's EasiPrep Concentrate - it keeps him looking terrific whilst not letting him get too fat (Joe still calls him fatty but....).
