Last week, @andie_biancone covered her first @BreedersCup for @NBCSports and brought a lifetime of love for and knowledge about horse racing to her interviews on horseback.

Great article by Yahoo Sports!!!!!
Mainstream media is paying attention to horse racing beyond the Kentucky Derby.
The People’s Commissioner will make sure U.S. racing has a voice in mainstream media EVERYWHERE.
The days of the same old insiders controlling this sport and feeding their self serving narratives to prehistoric, sponsored journalists who do nothing but copy and paste their press releases are OVER.
The old guard better be ready for a LOT more national transparency, accountability, and some very uncomfortable questions!!!!!
I’m on a mission, not a campaign!!!!! 🐎💪
Mike Repole (@repolestable) has spent years blasting the horse racing establishment. Then, earlier this month, he purchased 1 million shares in the sport’s ultimate establishment brand: Churchill Downs.
Why? He explained the move to @yahoosports

Win, lose, or draw this weekend, the most important thing owners, trainers, gamblers, jockeys, and the millions of fans watching can do is give back to the animals that power this great sport.

As I ride into the sunset, @andie_biancone will ride into the spotlight. Most of you know, and love Andie already, but for those who don’t, trust me, you will love her 😍! She shadowed me, often riding alongside me, at last year‘s @BreedersCup and this year‘s @KentuckyDerby. She’s ready! And she is going to be awesome. Please join me in welcoming her to this role with @NBCSports.

U S S Valor is incredibly talented. But this is a reminder: 2yo races around 1 turn don’t necessarily translate to 2-turn success
