First off, today is a very special day to me because, Today 4 years ago that my baby boy Midnight Hawk was born.
It feels just like yesterday i was watching him in the post parade at Betfair Hollywood park,before the track closed. From that day on he's been my baby boy, I never would of thought I would fall in love with a horse who lived 3,000 miles away from me.
I've watched every single race he's been in every since December 13th. Right after the Sham stakes in Feb I started a FB page for him, I remember picking him for my Derby horse. The day i got home from feeding the horses i turned on my facebook and the first thing i saw was " Midnight Hawk out of Derby " I was counting down the days that i was going to see my favortie horse in person, I was in tear's just reading that i was not going to see him in person.. Even though he wasn't at the Derby in 2014, i made a necklace that says " Midnight Hawk <3 " I wore the necklace with pride and everyone was asking me who is that horse? I said, He's my baby boy, he was going to run for the roses and scratched, When the horses were loading in the starting gates, I was picturing Midnight Hawk in them, And around the final turn I was seeing Midnight Hawk flying, he was in the lead and he won the Kentucky Derby. To me he won even though he wasn't running.
He took a little bit of a break, and my friend told me Your boy is aiming for the Damascucs stakes October 31st. I was so happy that my boy was running on breeders cup day in a undercard race.
I was telling everyone watch out for Midnight Hawk, he's ready, he's going to win.
He didn't win. He came in last, I was still proud of him, No matter if he win's or loses, he's still my perfect baby boy.
I can't be there today Hawk, I would give you so many Hugs & Kisses, i would sing Happy Birthday to you also. No matter what happens, No matter what races, No matter if you win or lose, I will always love you, I love you so much words can not describe how much i love you. I wish i could be there with you so bad. Hugs and Kisses. I love you Senor Perfecto, Happy Birthday my love..
I hope this year will be my year to see my boy in person.
You will always be my #1 horse.
Midnight Hawk <3
