Tory is a 16'3" bay Thoroughbred broodmare. She raced as a 2 year old, and spent many years showing hunter/jumper until she was retired due to a shoulder injury in her later years.

Ugh! 11 months pregnant...ready to give birth!
Feelin' pretty good, just 3 weeks after giving birth to Taylor!

Tory suffered a freak accident while being turned out in the indoor arena, and fractured her right hind leg. Unfortunately, the fracture was severe and compound, and nothing could be done to fix it, so she was euthanized at 9:35pm on December 20, 2000. Tory's greatness will live on in some of her outstanding foals:
