Jiggy...
« on: October 14, 2024, 05:41:12 PM »
Svanstedt Stable USA

Today we made the decision to stop racing Jiggy Jog.
After her last start in Dayton Derby, we noticed something wasn’t right. We had her
examined by two veterinarians and it was found she has a small tear on her sesamoid
ligament, which is very uncommon in Standardbreds.
Good news is, we caught it early and
she is not lame or in any pain.
She has given us so much joy and excitement for 4 years.
Every time she went behind the gate, it was
a pleasure to watch her amazing technique, speed and fighting instinct to win.
She gave 110% every time!
Now we look forward to her next chapter in life as a broodmare. We want to wish her and all
her owners a successful breeding career.
A big thank you to her best friend and caretaker Rene Lopez for your professional support and care for her throughout these years.🙏
Thank you to her driver Dexter Dunn
Thank you  ~ JIGGY JOG

Big bummer - an all time great.  With how lucrative the breeding shed has become the aged trotting ranks keeps getting further diluted. Just not a lot of stars around right now.

Sorry to see her go. A real generational talent.

 Super-mare

 Tough sledding racing against her, knowing we're fighting & clawing for 2nd at best.

 Big star of N.A trot, maybe we got a chance at some Crown $$$ now, makes it much mor interesting.
We don't need to race, it's the camaraderie & the bond with the horses that makes it special.
 *3 y.o colt has 2 wins so far as a sophomore,  3 starts
 *3 y.o filly has surprised, a win & a 3rd,  3 starts
