Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Cant present refs on here any contact info can cause problems for your transporters. Check my profile for feed back. It will take 6 to 7 days to transport depending on weather. There will be layovers every 500 miles or so for 10 hours overnight rest off trailer. I used to work for Cargill horse transport they transported for the race track but have since been bought out and had name change. If you have any questions feel free to ask. (11/4/2009)
Response: What is the route you will take. Are you going to go back down south to LA area before you go east? What race trainers have you shipped for in the past that I can call (please provide names and telephone numbers)? What is your price? Allen (11/4/2009)
Response: yes my route will take me south before I go east. I have dogs to pickup, I cant rely on horses entirely to make my business run. This I need you to understand, I CAN'T give you phone numbers or I lose my uship account(this i will ot do for anyone), even if it is for refs. I used to work For the company that is now called Morningstar. I have hauled from golden gate feilds to Bay Meadows to hollywood park and Santa Anita to name a trainer would be insane for there is so many. I had also done a haul to portland with them. I have done my own horse transport in longer hauls and I have 15 years handling horses. If 2000 is to much for a nearly 3000 mile run what can you afford. My small trailer gives me the ability to give your horse more personal care, than a hauler who has 6 to 10 horses going with him. (11/4/2009)
Response: I will not send my horse down south before it heads east. I have delt with the commercial shippers before. That week trip takes to much out of my race horses. It takes nearly a month to get them back to the shape they were in before they started the trip. My last shipper took less than 4 days. Commercial shippers charge $1,600 for the same trip. I will continue to look for other transportation. But thanks for your interest. (11/4/2009)
Response: Thanks anyway for considering me. Would have probably went down to 1000 after bidding. anyone who runs 3000 miles in 4 days has a secondary driver. In my opinion horses need an overnight layover to rest off trailer. I have never had a tired horse when doing this. I wish you good luck and safe travels for your horse. (11/4/2009)
Question: Greetings...Kirk at Wings Horse Transport...we have a transport leaving California directly to Virginia this week and would be happy to bring your horse aboard at $1050 door to door...credit cards securely through Paypal(pls add 3%) or cash/cashiers on delivery...over 23 years professionally transporting happy horses coast to coast...thanks for considering us...Kirk at Wings Horse Transport (11/4/2009)
Response: Do you leave from Golden Gate and go east or do you go to southern California first? How long does the trip take you? My horse races @ Golden Gate 11/6/09. He could not leave until a day or two after his race. Does that time frame fit your schudle? Do you know any trainers or delivered for any trainers @ Golden Gate or Charles Town race tracks? Allen (11/4/2009)
Response: Hi there...we'll already have our Southern California horses aboard and heading straight out 80...we are out of a third generation thoroughbred farm built to support Caliente when Seabiscuit was still running there...we've loaded maybe 50,000 racehorses one at a time to and from Southwest tracks...we may be unable to wait for that race but the jury is still out...thanks for the note...Kirk at Wings (11/4/2009)
Response: If you are able to wait let me know and I will make the arrangements through paypal. We have the coggins and can get the health cert. with no problem. Let me know how you progress continues. I will be sending probably 5 to 10 horses to Charles Town over the next 6 months. If you can wait, how long does your trip take? Allen (11/4/2009)
Question: we can pick up late next week will have direct trip have a great referance in nothern ca that we do allo of transports and the horses going to the sacramento are are for the grace foundation thanks jennifer cant give numbers tell you accept bid but can cancle if you dont like rederances thanks for your time Jennifer with Double Bar T Transport (11/4/2009)
Response: Please bid for one horse to go from Golden Gate to Charles Town WV. You stated one horse for $934.00 This bid is for Ukiah. I will accept the bid as soon as you present it. Thank you Allen Johnson (11/8/2009)
Question: We have a trip leaving out of CA between November 14-17th. We already have two horses aboard going to Charles Town, and can give you a great rate because of this. We will take a more southern route due to the chance of rough weather further north. We have shipped Tb's for several years, moving them across the country, from the north to FL, etc. You may view our feedback by clicking on my user name. If you would like for me to bid, let us know. We would be happy to transport for you. (11/4/2009)
Response: Your timimg is later than I like. Having said that, I will try to claim an additional horse the 6th @ Los Alamitos. If I am able to claim him that will be 2 for Charles Town. One @ GG & the other @ LA. If I am forced to wait that long please answer the following. How many days are you out from LA to Charles Town. What is your price for one maybe two if I win the possable shake. Please also supply references. Thank you Allen (11/4/2009)
Response: Thank you for responding. With transporting one horse, the price would be $934. If you were to transport two horses, I would give you a price of $1800. If you wish, just let me know which way to bid. It will usually take about 3-4 days from CA to arrive in WV. We have made this run with tb racehorses several times and we stop half way between and lay up for one night. They stay in better race condition that way. I understand that you would like for your horses to arrive sooner, however we provide for the horses health first and want them to arrive ready to run at the new track. Just let me know as soon as possible, as I would only have the two spots left, and if you are ready, we can go ahead and book for the one horse, and wait on the other. You can click on my user name, and see feedback for other customers that we have shipped for. I can not provide contact information on this site until after you accept the bid. Thank you for your consideration. (11/5/2009)
Response: I continue to look for a ride for Ukiah to leave asap. If I am unable to find a ride for him sooner than (Nov. 14/17), I will want to sellect your bid for his transportation to Charles Town if you still have the space available at that time. Please keep me up to date. Do you know which day you are going to leave? Allen (11/7/2009)
