	Horse Person of the Year
		We’re excited and pleased to announce this year’s recipient is Ron Levesque of Epping, NH., co-founder of E.P.O.N.A. Ron has had horses for most of his life or close to 30 years with the exception of 10-12 years when he founded, operated and managed The Epping Flower Shop and Gallery and R.
		Early on in his life, he was exposed to a rescue situation that ended with one horse being euthanized and the other having permanent physical limitations.
		Their inability to compete was often the result of their show career and handling, and then the horses were cast off and sent "down the road" to some undetermined fate.

	The Horse
		The six decades spanning the gaps between the years of the Fire Horse mean that this rare sign occurs only in the years 1846, 1906, 1966, 2026, etc. These years are bad for Horses themselves and bad for families who have a Horse in the house.
		This is because the Fire Horse's influence can change from beneficial to malignant, and during these years all Horse families will become subject to illness, accidents and bad luck in general.
		Under no circumstances must the Horse marry a Rat, in particular if the Horse is female and born under the rare sign of the Fire Horse (1906, 1966, etc.).

		GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas - With the Breeders’ Cup Classic in our rear view mirror, the race for Horse of the Year honors is boiled down to two – Ghostzapper and Smarty Jones – in a confrontation between generations that could come down to a tussle between sentiment and grudges.
		But this isn’t any other year, and the Bobby Frankel-trained colt must deal with the afterglow of the feel-good story for the ages acted out earlier this year by Smarty Jones.
		It is based on the tradition that the best older dirt horse deserves the Horse of the Year award unless all candidates are deficient.

		Scotty Schulhofer, Lemon Drop Kid's trainer, believes his 4-year-old colt deserves to be Horse of the Year despite two straight losses after four consecutive victories in graded stakes.
		"I think it [Horse of the Year] should go to someone who's been there all year and shows up at every race, which is something she has done," said Joe Orseno, who also trains Macho Uno, likely the champion 2-year-old colt after his nose victory over Point Given in the 1 1/16-mile Juvenile.

		While Ghostzapper didn't run in a race for the first six months of last year, Smarty Jones competed in what turned out to be the final race of his career nearly a month earlier, when he lost June 5 by a length to fast-finishing Birdstone in the Belmont Stakes.
		The debate over Horse of the Year began the instant Ghostzapper dominated perhaps the toughest field to ever run in the Breeders' Cup Classic on Oct. 30 -- nearly three months after Smarty Jones was retired and all but forgotten.
		Smarty Jones, who won six of seven starts last year, didn't have the same luxury, since the Triple Crown races are run in a span of five weeks.
