Our Mims Retirement Haven

Our Mims was the 1977 Eclipse Champion 3-Year-Old Filly. Running in the Calumet colors of devil’s red and blue, the daughter of Sweet Tooth won 5 of 18 races, including the G1 Coaching Club American Oaks, the Alabama, and the Delaware Handicap.

In 1990, Our Mims was sold as part of Calumet’s dispersal sale. Then in 1997 Jeanne Mirabito found a pensioned Our Mims on a local farm. With the help of a local rescue, Mims came to live with Jeanne… and a lifelong friendship developed.

Our Mims died of colic complications at the age of 29 in December of 2003 and was buried in Calumet’s equine cemetery. Her marker stands as a tribute to the fans who would not let her be forgotten.
