Trainer Jones Continues to Recover From Fall
By Ron Mitchell, April 20, 2014 6:44 PM


An assistant to Larry Jones said April 20 the trainer had shown improvement from injuries he sustained the previous day when thrown from a horse at Delaware Park.

Although he had yet to visit Jones on Easter Sunday but was planning to see him later in the day, assistant Corey York said reports he received from Jones' wife and assistant, Cindy, were that the "doctors were amazed at how much he has improved since yesterday."

York said the injury occurred when a 2-year-old Jones was aboard during morning training hours became spooked and threw Jones, who landed on his head. When transported to Christiana Hospital in Newark, Del., doctors detected bleeding on his brain and diagnosed him with two broken ribs and a bruised lung.

As of mid-afternoon April 20, York said he was told the bleeding on the brain had been reduced by half and that surgery was not going to be necessary to relieve the pressure.

York said Cindy Jones told him her husband was alert and responsive and that he was no longer on any medical equipment, except an IV. He also said it was possible Jones would be moved out of the intensive care unit to another location within the hospital as early as Monday.

Although the accident was serious, York said it could have been worse had Jones not been wearing a helmet.

Jones, 57, is a native of Kentucky who was one of the top trainers on the Midwest circuit being thrust into the national limelight with the success of horses such as Horse of the Year Havre de Grace and Hard Spun and Eight Belles, both of whom ran second in the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I).

Good Morning all! I hope this message finds you all well. I am doing fine and so is my baby.

There is one thing I want to post, it is sad news. Mr. Jerry informed me that my past trainer Mr. Larry Jones had an accident at the Delaware Track on Saturday. He was taken to the ER at the Local Hospital and as of yesterday was in ICU under watchful care. He has several broken ribs and a head injury. My prayers go out to this kind and good man. He was a great trainer and a wonderful person to be with. Please say a prayer for a speedy recovery and his return to the track and working with his horses.

Until later, take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Good Evening all! Hope you all have a blessed weekend and a Very Happy Easter.

Good Morning all! Well I am proud to announce that I have had a bouncing baby girl. She is a beautiful girl and I am a happy Mama too. Everything went well and she is exciting about all her surroundings. It will be great for everyone to come and see her and to watch her grow this next year. Hope you all have a chance to visit and in the meantime take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Good Morning All,
This cold weather is delaying a lot of babies. Almost everyone around in the horse industry is complaining that the moms and babies are just not cooperating this year. Mom's seem to be eating more and babies seem to be perfectly content to stay where they are until the temps are warmer and the sun is in full swing. If horses are anything like people.... March 16th at 6:08pm CST is the full moon.....look out world they will start to pop!!! Hope everyone has a wonderful sunny weekend....and take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Hope all of you have been weathering the winter storm. We have been doing the same here.
JJK Thoroughbreds had Point to the Wild, a filly, set to run in the Mardi Gras Stakes race in New Orleans on turf, but because the race changed to dirt Brad Cox (the trainer) pulled her from the race. We hope to see Point to the Wild race in another good race. She has done so well so far in her career and has had a 1st and 2nd in her 3 times out. Go get 'em Point to the Wild. More updates as they come in. Take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Good Morning All!!!! Well...here's the long awaited update!! I am currently at Heaven Sent Stables, but Mr. Kevin says I am going to go to the Vet in Lexington to have my baby. I am due in early March and everyone wants to make sure I have a good birthing experience. Especially since it is my first. One Pretty Lady will be coming due too...but she is an old pro at having babies.

Hope you all are keeping warm and cozy. I will keep you updated of all that goes on here....more to come. Take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Good Afternoon everyone!!! Happy New Year!!! Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. I hope that all of my friends and family have a wonderful and blessed 2014!! Take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Good Afternoon! Getting warmer here in Kentucky. Well...it is official...Nash is on he is way to Vermont with Miss Hannah. She picked him up this morning at Turfway around 1030am and he met another little pony to ride home with. It will be good. I will have Miss Cindy post pictures soon.

Mr. Kevin and Mr. Jerry are on their way to pick up Tizalady. She will be on her way home to become a Momma!!! Everyone drive safe. Well...gotta go and eat some more grass around the fences...take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Good Evening all! It was a nicer day today than we have had in a while. At least there isn't ice with my grass! Wow. Mr. Kevin and Mr. Don feed me really good sweet feed and the hay isn't bad either. Hey....I felt something kick today!!!!

Well...it is official. Miss Hannah will be picking up Nashville Pred tomorrow at Turfway and he will be going to his new home in Vermont. Wow!!! What a trip. I hear it is pretty far. But she is going to send us some pictures so we can keep up with his progress. We want to wish Nash the best and I hope we hear in the future that he is a Northeastern Champion of ......... That would be so great! Thank Miss Hannah for being so kind and taking Nash to a new home.

Next comes Tizalady....she reinjured her leg and Mr. Brad pulled her off the track. She will be retired now to a Broodmare at Heaven Sent Stables and hopefully she will be ready to be a mamma this spring. We are all sorry to see her leave the track, but it is better to bring her home and let her be a Mom. I will have another friend here to play with. I hope you all are staying warm and cozy.

Oh...I heard Mr. Don and his lovely wife had a wonderful award the other night. Congrats on the special award Mr. Don. We are so happy you were recognized in the community for all your support of the community. Well...gotta run....take care and stay safe. Tenny Liz

Hi all,
Hope you all are keeping safe in the ice storm!!! It is cold outside....brrrrrrrrrr.
I have some updates for you. Stich Publicpix the filly we had at the track this last May and June was placed at New Vocations....she has now been adopted by a horse lover in Austin Texas and she will be living a life of liesure. How great for her.

Nash didn't do so well at Churchill and he isn't talking about it much....kinda embarrassed. Miss Cindy, Mr. Kevin and Mr. Jerry think that Nash may need a new career. He as going to try to race by the 15th of December but there are few races at 5f for him to run in and that seems to be is length right now. Sooooo...he may be going to Vermont to a new home and learn to compete in Equistrian Competitions. I will keep you posted. Until then take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Well......hello everyone!! I am doing fine. I have this big bellie on me and I think I feel something moving!!! There has been so much going on. Horses racing...horses being claimed....horses being sold...Wow...we are busy here at Heaven Sent Stables. Lots and lots going on. But I wanted to update you on one of our younger colts....Nashville Pred. Remember he came to us as a baby...wasn't born here...but we have had him since a youngster....well he raced his first race at Indiana Downs...their last day. While he came out of the gate like a rocket and led for a while then back to third ....he ended up 8th. After getting him back to the barn there was a reason. He had cut his leg 6 times and the last being the biggest. We think he did it to himself and that it hurt...so he pulled up. If you go to FB Nashville Pred Horse....you will see all the pics Ms. Cindy has posted. There are more to come on this site too. Well...gotta run everyone have a wonderful weekend....and Take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Lightning Strike Injures Patrons at Kentucky Downs

Ask Ray

Now ....not only do you have to look out for muddy tracks, people, and hot humid days .....you have to look out for lighting!!!! Wow...glad no one was seriously hurt.

KENTUCKY DOWNS!! 9/11/2013
An isolated lightning storm injured several patrons and knocked out power to the tote system at Kentucky Downs in Franklin, Ky., on Wednesday afternoon.

The Louisville Courier-Journal reports that one lightning strike hit a metal pole on a tent in the picnic area, which shocked several people. One woman was transported to an area hospital, while others were treated on the scene.

The storm hit shortly after the fourth race had been completed; the track cancelled the remainder of the 10-race program.

Track President Corey Johnsen told the Courier-Journal that the track would ask the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission to allow it to run three extra races on both Sept. 18 and 25 to make up for the cancellation.

Each horse that was scheduled to run in the cancelled races will receive $500 out of the track’s purse account to cover travel expenses, Johnsen added.
Take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

We will call him "M" for Majestic!!! I came into Churchill last week and Mr. Kevin picked me up and delivered me to the farm in Kentucky.

I want to thank everyone for all their support with my races and thank you for all coming and visiting me when you could. I will be a good mama and I hope to make you proud of me as a broodmare and producing wonderful babies!!! All my babies should be great racers!! More later. Take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz

Good Evening all!!! Well I ran well yesterday after missing a good start at the gate. Then being bumped and kicked within the 1st 50 yards. Wow...rough start. Didn't like the turf either...really wet and swampy. It was just not a good day! I will be a little tender for the next couple of days. Mr. Larry had the vet check me out and everything looked okay at the time. I think I just need some rest. I really like racing and I just think this was not the best of days for my career. Ms. Charlene and Dan were down and I had other owners here too....it was great to see them and I had a lot of hugs and kisses before and after the race. Thank you to all that came and thank you for all those who have sent me good wishes after my nasty day!!! I know my next one will be a better day. Until later take care and stay safe. Teeny Liz
