This is how you judge a true Hall of Famer: Jerry Hollendofer has been extensively and quietly funding this Thoroughbred Aftercare Heaven, years before the industry realized that it was our duty…
Down the Stretch Ranch is a California-based Thoroughbred aftercare organization dedicated to giving off-track Thoroughbreds a second chance while connecting with veterans and their families. Learn more: downthestretch.org

The OG Given the interest in my latest video on the In The Congo colt, I thought this video might be of value. Hall of famer D Wayne Lukas talking @TomRyanKY & Henry @NewgateFarm through his 6️⃣ non negotiables Enjoy 👏

Six minutes with D. Wayne Lukas and his six non-negotiables: a masterclass. Every thoroughbred auction house in North America should have his statue out front; he is responsible for billions in trade.

A sad day for the great Montana Bison. Interior Secretary Doug Bergum, at the request of Little Greg Gianforte and the corporate zombie Montana Senators/Reps, has ended conservation grazing permits for Bison on the great American Prairie, a huge section of restored Bison land in central Montana. Make no mistake, the decision by Bergum is an extension of the nepo-baby, grifting cronyism that currently plagues our federal government. But this time, the victim is the great American Bison.

How can any thoroughbred be worth $150m? A couple of weeks ago @HillnDaleFarm John Sikura paid $3m for a 1/50th share in @TaylorMadeSales exciting young proven sire NOT THIS TIME. The public sale of the share at @keeneland values NOT THIS Time at a cool $150m. Stallion equity is not well understood in the bloodstock market, from my experience. I think it can play an integral role in any bloodstock portfolio. As such, I thought I would do a rough breakdown to show just how Mr. Sikura may have worked out his value for a share in Not This Time. Below is a video to talk you through the numbers. Questions welcomed. #ThoroughbredBusiness

Lots of other big races to scoop up Damon. He’s an improving horse that literally “flew” home. Wonderful group of owners and excited for his future as an older horse 💪👌🐎💥
To give insight into why we're doing what we're doing to fight to preserve live racing: Watch sr consultant @damon_thayer's poignant synopsis after Tom's Magic's powerful rally in @WoodbineTB's King's Plate came up just short. "Horse racing will rip your heart out, throw it on the ground & stomp it with a stiletto. (pause) It's still the greatest game played outdoors." Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of jobs, small businesses and green space created by the industry. #ThayerThought

Arthur Hancock is the most courageous and morally centered person I’ve known in nearly 50 years in this business. I appreciate all he and wife Staci have done to focus on integrity and equine welfare issues for decades. Both deserve our thanks and gratitude.
The horse world needs more voices like this. Arthur Hancock III built a legacy on wisdom, grit, and speaking up when it mattered. Every rider, breeder, and fan should listen to the words spoken by this Hall of Fame Pillar of the Turf. Drop a ❤️ if you agree with Mr Hancock.

Well done all……delighted for Billy and John, plus all the partners at Little Red Feather Racing. You have been huge supporters of Collected, and the sky is the limit for this filly. We wish you well 🍀🐎
Nod your head if you’re a superstar. 🤩 The morning after her G2 San Clemente Stakes triumph, THOUGHT PROCESS is feeling fresh, playful, and every bit the star she is. Tongue out, head nodding… this filly knows she stole the show. Trained by @PhilDamato11 and ridden by @hiberrios, the talented daughter of Collected is doing fantastic and soaking up the spotlight she earned. 🌟
