From our Readers:
August 17, 2011 - Hi SureBet, I received an order for one of my round bale hay nets this morning and I had an opportunity to ask the customer where he heard about my product. He informed me that he just went on the internet and put in "hay net" and found Texas Haynet right on the first page! Wow! How exciting! Since I make a product that "never was before", most people do not look for something that they don't know exists. Looking under the general term "hay net" usually has me about page five...with the help of SureBet Racing News talking about the Texas Haynet, I am on the front search page for the very first time! SureBet Racing News obviously has a front row seat in the modern day internet search engine! Thank you so much for letting everyone know the benefits of slow feeding cut grass hay!!

Your Stallion Index is great! Often I have owners call and ask where a certain stud is standing—this will be so nice and easy to find them! Thank you. Annelle/Ruidoso Downs, Nominations
