Warhorse L. C. Sleepy, aka ‘Simon,’ Thriving in Second Career

Description:
A horse who proved to love racing over his five seasons on the track, L. C. Sleepy earned the “warhorse” designation by making 65 starts in his career and winning races for three straight seasons. The gelding won $95,249 in earnings with five wins and 13 other top-three finishes, an extremely respectable career for a racehorse.
But it is in his second career that the veteran has shined.
After L. C. Sleepy retired from racing, he joined Finger Lakes Finest Thoroughbreds. That is when “Simon” caught Shannon Ryan-Dinmore’s attention.
