Ivory Pine Syndicate

Happy (official) birthday to our yearling filly Tayra! She is a Maine-Mass eligible pacer by Dude’s the Man and out of Little Honey Badger, a homebred broodmare bred by our co-owner and trainer Mike Graffam (pictured). How it’s going, how it started indeed. 🌲🐎

Crimson Pine is entered in his first race of 2026 this evening at @PlainridgePark! 🌲🐎

"You can hear it in my voice, I'm certainly emotional, it's dad's birthday and we're here together, and I can't even put into words what this means to us and our racing stable." 🎙️ An emotional interview with Brian and Dave of @BushRacing and @MaggieWolfndale.

@ShotTakingTime Thought that 16-1/23-1/12-1 late Pick 3 would be juicy…until it wasn’t.

What an electric opening day of racing at #Plainridge. I am hard as a rock.

Today is the first day of rolling Doubles at Plainridge Park, so it’s also a good day to test out a new handicapping algorithm. Value play is #8 Just A Little Bit A (12-1 ML) in the eighth race. Crimson Pine’s stablemate Hollywood Skeeter is also +EV at 5-1 in the tenth race.

Happy opening day at @PlainridgePark to all who celebrate! 🌲🐎

Here is an update on the condition of driver Brett Beckwith from his mother Melissa. We send out wishes for a full and swift recovery.

Sending out good vibes and prayers to Brett Beckwith Please respect the Beckwith’s privacy at this time, but just give all the good thoughts and prayers you can. I have no updates to give other than the horse is fine and walked off and Brett was transported to the hospital.

@Ms_PeKu @TKKuegler @WasabiStables Love it, appreciate the context!

@IvoryPine1820 @TKKuegler @WasabiStables This year all of the foals have US cities as nicknames that start with the same letter as their dam. I needed to pick a "C" city for this colt, and as a former NH-ite, I thought of Camden, ME. (We already have a Concord, NH, foal.)

What better way to spend my Friday night than welcoming the arrival of our newest @WasabiStables foal?! Please meet "Cam" (AKA Camden, Maine)

🚨BREAKING🚨 It looks like @PlainridgePark will include rolling Doubles in its wagering menu, when the track opens its 110-day meet next week!

Today @Equibase published an update to the Rating System. Two changes, both rooted in the same principle: recent performance drives the rating, but a horse’s class ceiling (what it has proven it can do at its best level) should not be invisible in the number. Here’s what changed and why it matters.

Positive change is possible with effort, creativity, and aggressiveness.

Today was a carrot cake and champagne day when our partners visited with our yearling filly Tayra at historic Norton Farm a few days before her actual birthday. Thank you to our co-owner Mike Graffam and his Team Graffam crew for their hospitality! 🌲🐎

Renegade. Sharpie.

This is so, so lovely. Imagine not having this type of content. Racing just as non-narrative betting fodder. That would be really, really sad

@scottyd7601 @ftcumberland Congrats on the big score!

@IvoryPine1820 @ftcumberland Had 3.00 to win on the 3

First race at @ftcumberland on a cold, bright day in Cumberland, Maine is won by Royalty Again at 42-1!

@TimK1111 @ftcumberland We need many things.

@IvoryPine1820 @ftcumberland They need HD Signal.
