HISTORY

Vince was born and raised on a farm in Lexington, Ky. amid the fine horse farms of the Bluegrass region.  He bought his first horse at 16 and started breeding the following year.  He moved to Columbus in 1970 to start his own business.  In 1977 Vince and Anita bought Squires Glen Farm so the family could enjoy horses.  Vince boarded a young weanling, Betts Full Moon.  While watching this horse grow into a 16 hand two year old he became partners and eventually bought all of him, as a two year old in 1984.  After earning $168,600.00 and a SI of 105 his career came to an abrupt end as a 4 year old when he broke down on a sloppy track in the All American Gold Cup in Ruidoso, NM.  Although devastated, Vince was determined to stay in quarter horse racing.  Having had the opportunity to see many fine runners race including world champions while at Ruidoso, he knew what he needed to do.  Two days later a small but beautiful 15.2 hand black colt, Timeto Get Tuff caught his eye at the All American select sale.  The following year "Tuffy" made the finals of the All American Futurity and earned over $108,000.00 and a SI of 104 before retiring.  IN the mean time Vince was busy starting his breeding program.  This instant "racing luck" afforded the addition of both mares and stallions.  In 1990 the operation was moved to its existing 50 acre location, in Westerville, Ohio.
