Horses bred by Red Barn Farms.

At Red Barn Farms, they were successful in breeding to race as they had decent stallions and decent mares. The last stallion at Red Barn was Rolling Sea-- B.H. 1960 by Sailor out of De Hostess by Your Host. He won six races on the NYRA circuit - a 1 mile event in 1:34.4 was 3rd in the Occupy Hdcp at 1 mile to Never Bend after forcing the pace to the 1/16th pole.This is the family of Smart Deb -champion 2 yr. old filly of 1962. Other stallions to stand at Red Barn were Chicle II, The Warrior,Lollemmi(?) and several others. They all competed and won races in NY.
Walt Rydesky, former asst trainer for Tennessee Wright- a national leading trainer in the nation at one time- was the trainer for 37 years and his brother Ted was the farm manager. Breeding mares returned/retired from racing, Red Barn was able to stay in the black. Leaving Texas every year for the start of Keeneland Racecourse in April then onto Churchill Downs then where ever the stock told Walt they needed to be. Sometimes at Hazel Park, Detroit, Arlington or the New England racetracks or Waterford Park. Mares not producing runners were sold. Fillies by producing mares were retained for future broodmares whenever possible. Horse injured at the races were sent home to recover then when the string came home in November, they were put back in training along with the breaking of yrlgs, then back to the races in April. Sometimes as many as 36 horses left in April then only 9 came home in November, sometimes even less came home. As they became known for raising runners, Red Barn was able to sell/have claimed many of its horses adding money to the bottom line.
