Situated at the intersection of Pisgah and Old Frankfort Pikes, the former Bonne Chance Farm has been reopened under the new name of Reverie Farm by Curtis and Beth Harrell and will serve as a boarding facility, according to a press release from the outfit on Wednesday.
The Harrells, who have bred and raced under the names Alto Racing and Harrell Ventures, also plan to house their broodmare band at the farm.
“When we acquired this property, we were struck not only by its premier location and facilities, but by the exceptional stewardship of the land,” said Curtis Harrell. “It has been cared for the right way for generations, and that is exactly the standard we intend to maintain. Our goal is not to fill every stall; it is to partner with like-minded clients, provide world-class care, and build a lasting legacy our family can be proud of.”
The operation is under industry veteran John Durr, who has managed this acreage since 2013.
“I've been on this property for over a decade, and our philosophy remains unchanged: the horse comes first, before convenience, before anything else,” said John Durr. “The land here is truly exceptional. It has never been overgrazed or overworked, and you can see that in the caliber of horses that come off it. Good land produces sound, athletic horses. It's that simple.”
