First, I am posting a link to their page on Trot.org:

I have had trouble posting pictures of them, but they are on that thread.
The horses were sent to a female trainer, who lived with and was involved in a relationship with the barn owner. The relationship fell apart and the female trainer left the horses and moved out of state. The owner of the farm contacted me and advised me of the situation. I began making arrangements to ship them home. I could not reach the farm owner for almost a week and when I did he informed that he had been out of town for the weekend and when he returned the horses were gone and he was pleasantly surprised. He never called to inquire. He has no idea he claims who took the horses. Upon this notification I called and notified the sheriff and subsequently found out that this individual is involved in an on going investigation with state authorties (very serious). The theory is that he could not wait around for the hauler to pick up the horses as he has been avoiding questioning by the authorities and will not answer their calls. His whereabouts is really not known at this time, his office says he does a lot of traveling. We are using every available source known to get the word out about our horses. Here is their description: 6 year old chestnut (copper red) with four high white stockings (over the knee) and a beautiful white blaze. He is green broke to ride, does not have his tail cut. I purchased him and he was not registered and I was waiting for the DNA kit to register him. He is very flashy and would catch your eye, especially due to his 4 leg markings. The second horse is a 4 year old jet black stud colt, with 3 white socks, white star and snip, he is broke to drive and green broke to ride. Also very flashy looking and big. He is registered, does not have his tail cut. Both are very kind and very mannerly, especially the stud colt. The horses were paid up to date.
If anyone has any information you can call the Campbellsville Sheriff’s Dept. 270-465-4351 and ask for Deputy Benningfield. Thank you for your help, it is a traumatic time for us.

We fear they may be on the Auction circuit, so anyone who goes to auctions, please be on the lookout for both of them. Thank you for your help. They are also posted on my FB profile “Hilarie Thomas”. Thank you for looking.
