"We will be updating this page with recommendation notes from our
internet and track customers, Thank you for your interest and support!"
"Thanks for doing another set of Silks
for me, I know they are hard to do and I appreciate your excellent work! Thanks"
"I have been doing business with Hidalgo for the past 10 years or so. I have
never been disappointed with his work. Turfway Park utilizes his saddle towels,
special towels for big race days, helmet covers and paddock vest for the grooms.
He is always on time and his material is top quality. The thing I like the most
is he pays attention to detail. Hidalgo is the best."
"Mike wanted me to send you the enclosed Win Photo from June 12, 2011 with the beautiful silks you have made for our Colt, Majestic City. We really appreciate all you do for us! Custom Made Silks were awesome to deal especially since we were first time horse
owners, we did not really know the process. She explained the process, showed us what
options we had, and was extremely helpful and flexible with schedule and most
importantly delivered in a timely matter and the silks were beautiful. We ran our
first race and although we finished third, our silks were number one!
"I just received the Jockey Silks order for our stable, and all I can say is WOW!!!
Not only was the delivery speedy, but the work was impeccable. I just hope that the
Thoroughbreds in our stable perform as admirably. You are definitely our vendor of
choice!!!" "...the saddle towels are great. We have received many compliments on them.
They seem to wear like iron." "I just wanted to thank you for the racing silks, blinkers and blankets and all
the hard work you put into making them. I am quite pleased with the quality and
durability of the fabrics and the speed in which you were able to complete them!
Again, thanks for the beautiful silks- I am sure to order more and will recommend
you highly." "I recieved the priority mail package lasst Friday and the silks look great! Thank you for your atention to detail,"
"Thank you for making the Racing Silks for the Grave Family. The Racing Silks look wonderful, Sincerely"
"I just wanted to let you know how much we like the
custom made winter weather Jockey sweaters that you made for the Breeders' Cup World
Thoroughbred Championships. They are of wonderful material and the workmanship is superb.
I'm sure that all of the competitors at this year's Championships will enjoy them very much.
Thanks again for such a professional job. Best regards,"

"Oh my Goodness...these silks are beautiful. I received the package from fedex minutes
ago at my office and the whole staff went crazy. Someone even suggested that we should
change our uniforms to my colours. Guys, I am so pleased with your product. It seems that
I may just have to place another order real soon. Tks for your professionalism and a quality product.
Regards," "We have been pleased with the silks you have made us over the years, and the quick
service we received." "We have the silks we ordered from you - and you were right - they are beautiful. They just
arrived a week ago and we are still marveling at them. Can hardly wait to get them into a race!
Maybe they will bring good luck - as they sure look good. Thanks again - it was a plesure doing
business with you" "Many Thanks! They turned out very Bright and Classy!"
"Thank you for a prompt and beautiful job on the silk and blinker. We are very
pleased with them. If ever we need your service again we will be calling you. Thanks again"
"I just recieved the package with Sam's silks. Just wanted to say thanks for a beatiful
job. They are so darn cute, they bought tears to my eyes. I know he will love them. When he
outgrows the silk we will frame it and put it on his bedroom wall,,,thanks again"
"The costumes look great! Thanks for everything!"
"has been an absolute pleasure to deal with...everything arrived as promised and is
of the highest quality..I hope all of our horses are front runners so the silks won't
get dirty....I will be reccomending her to the rest of my racing community...."
"Beautiful work - As always, Thanks"
"Thanks for the great job on my silks. Would you make me another set please? Thanks again, they look great! Sincerely"
"I would like to extend my most sincere appreciation on the rush job you completed for me
recently. Not only was the job completed in a remarkably short time, but the quailty of the
silks was superb!"
Thank you again for the beautiful jockey silks and cap you made for our 3 year old son,
Peter. Our son is a horse racing fanatic ( his favorite movies are Seabiscuit and Black
Stallion !) and insisted on dressing as a jockey for Halloween. We had given up hope of
finding a costume ( this is not a typical costume for a 3 year old!!) until I found your
website, Custom Silks. You caught our attention when we read " We make Special Size
Silks, whether it is tailored for a costume party or a gift for celebration of success,
a Birthday, Christmas present, whatever the occasion, we can make it to your unique
design !!" When we sent you a picture of Ron Turcotte's silks when he rode Secretariat
in the Belmont Stakes in `73 we never expected them to look exactly like Ron's !.
The colors, quality of your fabrics, details right down to the little bow tie and your
tailoring skills are outstanding, as you can tell from this picture I am forwarding.
And to have received the silks within days or our order was completely unexpected.
As you can see from my son's smile, you made him the happiest little boy !! We'll be
sure to send you more pictures from Halloween. We thank you again for your incredible
work and for helping Peter's dreams come true !!
"Silks look good. When I need another set, I'll be in touch, Thanks"
"Gracias-Gracias-Mucho! The Silks are just what we wanted. The Blue Heron is Great!!"
"WE LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so very much!!! We received everything yesterday and are SO PLEASED!!!!!!!!!
You do such nice work and we so appreciate your promptness, professionalism and kindness
!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!! You have made one little girl
very happy!!!!! Blessings & Smiles,"
"Thank you for the Good Looking Blinkers, they are Terrific! See you at the Track"
