Our trip was a success because the first thing we did upon arrival was a Horse Farm Tour with Shaun. His knowledge of the horse racing is amazing. We saw several farms and also were able to get up close and personal with beautiful horses and met some of the people running these beautiful farms. Shaun was so generous and gave us restaurant tips that were delicious and also suggested visiting Keeneland early in the morning which was amazing.

Four 25 year old girls from NYC came to Lexington, Kentucky for 4th of July weekend and family friends had set up the horse farm tour with Shaun. Shaun was personable, friendly, educational and gave us 3 hours of fun. He has been there his whole life and knows knowledge about the long time locals who have been very successful in the horse racing industry. Shaun is also very friendly with the managers of the farms, so we got to personally ask questions to very experienced horse trainers. We got to see many farms and feed horses carrots! Definitely a highlight of our weekend and I would recommend it to anyone visiting Lexington, Kentucky! Thank you for the amazing time Shaun!
