Old Friends

Old Friends was opened in Georgetown Kentucky by founder Michael Blowen in response to the news that Kentucky Derby winner Ferdinand was slaughtered in Japan. Michael Blowen made a commitment to do everything in his power to prevent such travesties in the future. The New York location, Old Friends at Cabin Creek- the Bobby Frankel Division was opened in 2009. We are home to many special athletes, among them Will's Way (Travers winner), Roaring Lion (Leo), Red South Down, and the lovable character Zippy Chippy. We are also so grateful to have cared for Thunder Rumble (Travers winner), Crusader Sword and Behrens, who are all terribly missed.
