Shared Belief was the best 2-year old of 2013. In person, he was small, greyhound-like; galloping, he floated over the ground with a long, low stride. He beat champions like California Chrome. This would be his first time racing outside of California—met with much excitement at Charles Town, a track not many would probably associate with top class racing. Shared Belief pulled up during the race, suffering a non-displaced hip fracture, and would never race again.

Down Town Allen was the winningest mare in West Virginia racing history. She was running beautifully—then, tragedy as she pulled up on the backstretch. It was determined she suffered a torn suspensory ligament, and was later euthanized due to complications with the injury.
