What a sad story. Two lovers torn apart by greed.

or not.

Capone's photo was the front page of the Globe and Mail (Cdn nat'l newspaper) on the weekend. Interview with Spink, and the news that apparently there was a high speed chase here involving two horse trailers (one with Capone inside). They didn't mention any of Spink's other activities though.

Good. I'm glad he's still safe in Canada and I hope he stays that way!

Go Corinne!

You have GOT to be kidding. OK if that's true, I want to know who was driving because they deserve special HALL OF SHAME consideration!

WHO WOULD DO THAT???

Morgan_Horse_Queen said...

If they were driving fast to run away from Spink, I forgive them for driving that way.

Bateman Family said...

W-O-W! Go Corrine! Stick it to that freak! (no pun intended)

JDKdressage said...

I heard there was a "mid-speed chase" with horse trailers and lawyers and pickups involved. Seriously. This whole thing just gets classier by the minute.

I bet Capone's happy to be, living an, er, unmolested life in Canada these days. Here's hoping that someone steps up with the unsavory stuff Spinks does on the intertubes.

Someone posted the story link on the messageboard a week or so ago. It was all very WTF.

Unbelievable...High speed chase with a horse in a trailer...How stupid can you get?

AlmightyMarshmellow said...

EUGH! Isn't the guy he got stolen from the guy who loved his animals a bit TOO MUCH? D=

Thanks for the update, but thanks for the re-entering of that image back into my head.

:reaches for brain bleach:.

CutNJump said...

According to some people in prominent places-

The pro rider who was showing Capone dropped Spink as a client when he (Spinkter) wanted to ride along in the truck with them on the road between shows.

Um, NO! As in, NO FUCKING WAY!

I can't say as I blame the guy!

Some you ride for the horse,
some you ride for the money.

Some you just turn away no matter what!

AlmightyMarshmellow said...

I've got to start reading comments before I post. Grh.

High speed chase in a horse trailer? Hopefully only down straight stretches. Trailers get tipped at NORMAL speeds. What if said stud had fallen over and tipped the trailer? BLOOD ALL ROUND!

=)

I'ma Google it.

Yellahorse said...

Thank goodness he is still safe. After all he is an extremely talented horse. I hope Corinne gets to keep him. He deserves a good life.

horspoor said...

Okay, so this question is for those of you with legal backgrounds.

Will his history of being 'zoo' have any bearing on whether he gets the horse back? Is the ownership issue seperate? Can his 'relationship' with the horse have any bearing on the case?

Here's the link to the Globe & Mail story:

snaffles said...

Okay, go to the globe and mail website and enter capone in the search box, its the first story that pops up.

may said...

Woohoo, go Corrine! I hope she wins this.

charlienchico said...

I hadn't watched the ABC link before- ewwww, ewwww, ewwww- Spinks just oozez slime in that interview- even really not knowing all of his sordid details- he's just creepy.

fuglyhorseoftheday said...

Charlieenchico...jeez your yearling is my yearling's twin. What's his breeding?

TornadoBaby said...

High speed trailer chase? High speed as in... high speed for trailers? Or high speed, PERIOD?

Dear God... maybe they thought Spinky wouldn't want him back if loverhorse was all bruised up.

I see another job for the face-kicking crested gremlin... (no offense to the real crested dogs...)

QueenSkankarella said...

From the article:
"On June 19, Ms. Munro and Ms. Super wound up at the RCMP detachment in Chilliwack after two horse trailers, one containing Capone 1, chased one another down country roads for an hour or two. "

OK, I misremembered it as saying "high-speed", but still, it's crazy.

Stephanie said...

OH I hope he stays in Canada!

What a sick bastard, that Douglass guy!!

Holy crap - I wasn't aware of the story till today. Too bad I just ate lunch - don't feel so well now...

Timely update, I was just thinking of this the other day.
I sure as hell hope Spinkter doesn't get him back.

BuckdOff said...

More power to the rescuer/s of Capone, glad he is safe...

I was wondering the same thing when I saw him.

WemosMom said...

See.. I have issues with this whole situation.. the Corrinne Chick is Bat Shit Crazy too.. I mean like off her fucking rocker crazy, and her place is being forclosed (is up for sale to try and get somr cash out before then I presume)

Honestly, Doug and her were perfect together, and would have been even better if they never got into horses...

Corrinne has been caught in lies during legal proceedings etc, I adnmit id do anything to keep these horses away from Doug... But leaving them with a well known up-hill skier (coke head) who cant tell the difference between legal and not, isnt much better.

Capone is in his prime, and needs to get out there and be shown. The syndicate who owns him should Let thier balls drop, and get thier damn horse, and get out of this whole group.

Anyone who has ever met Corrinne or had any dealings with her would agree, its understandable how Doug can go from fucking livestock to her.. uncanny ressemblance..

It is the "extra gait" that some appaloosas have that is smooth akin to a TWHs running walk.

CharlieDog said...

Wo0t! Glad to know he's still safe!

mandakay said...

"If they were driving fast to run away from Spink, I forgive them for driving that way."

The horse was in the trailer, yelling, "Can't you go any faster?!"

LegendsLiveOn said...

Well, if you ever want your stallion hand-bred, you could leave him with Spink-ter. I'm sure he'd be willing to pay /you/ for his services! *snerk*
