His life was saved by a woman who heard about him at Camelot auction house waiting to be transported to Canada where horse slaughter is legal. She bought Moon for $250 then contacted advocates/Old Friends.
Named after the late Hall of Fame thoroughbred trainer, The Bobby Frankel Division of Old Friends at Cabin Creek is just one of what Blowen and the Peppers hope and believe will become an international safe place for the retired horses that once showcased their speed and thrilled spectators on the race track for years.

Bobby was considered to be one of the top horse trainers ever and had trained horses for over forty years. Frankel was an avid follower of the late and great Charlie Whittingham, trainer of champions such as Ferdinand and Sunday Silence.
Bobby was very generous to us at Old Friends. He really cared about what happened to his equine athletes. Bobby passed away on November 16th, 2009 at his home in Pacific Palisadesn from complications of lymphoma. He will be missed and will forever have a place here amongst his most trusted friends and athletes.
