After 21 years @FanDuel_Racing (formerly #TVG), today will mark my last day on the network. As a horse trainer for 14 years with literally zero “on-air” experience, I could’ve never imagined my broadcasting career would evolve and remain into 2026! For that, I am humbled and forever grateful. 🙏
Thank you to the powers-that-be who took a chance on me, with a Salute to those individuals behind the scenes, the producers, directors, camera operators, master control, etc. who went above and beyond to make it all work seamlessly.☝️
I am most appreciative of the
horseplayer, the horse owner and breeder, and even the casual viewer. The best part of my “job” was getting to know so many of you both on and off the air, with some on a more personal level. Needless to say, it was interactive television at its finest! And, knowing that my mom was watching, made being on TV all the more special. 🫡
To my colleagues, former and present, I will cherish the countless memories spent together both in and out of studio, thank you for your support and friendship. Sending blessings for each of you to land on your feet.💙
Here’s to the future of horse racing; until next time, I hope to see you in the Winners’ Circle, Godspeed. 🎤
He said to him, “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with your mind.” 🙏🏼 Matthew 22:37
God created humanity out of love, and all the rest of creation for the benefit of human beings. In return, God asks that we remain faithful to his will by loving one another as He loved us. Wishing you and yours a blessed Sunday, my friends. 💙

Super Corredora was last seasons champion 2-yo filly.
After she blew the start and had a multitude of things go wrong in a dismal performance as the favorite in a Grade 3, her Equibase Rating plummeted to a 53.
She was eligible for Ratings Races at Mountaineer (60 or less)
Hey @chancemoquett, with all due respect, the @Equibase “Ratings Handicap” speed figures need to be properly calibrated before we continue to write races cheating the horsemen and wagering public. For reference, this race is 10/30 @LaurelPark R4. Make it make sense! 🤔🧵
Blessed is the day! Salute to @FasigTiptonCo, the consignors, and our Equine friends for a successful sales week. Wheels up to LA, soon to be back in LEX for an exciting @BreedersCup week! 🙏🏇👊🏽 #keeponmovin
Prayers up for a speedy recovery, God bless you @iradortiz. 🙏🏻💙
.@iradortiz suffered a broken left ankle and will have to undergo surgery, per agent Steve Rushing. Obviously, out indefinitely.

“They were exceedingly astonished and said among themselves,‘Then who can be saved?’ Jesus looked at them and said, ‘For humans beings it is impossible, but not for God. All things are possible for God.’”🙏

Prayers up for our friends in France. 🇫🇷
Sale day 1 of 4 @FasigTiptonCo. Good luck to the buyers and consignors, with appreciation to our Equine athletes.🫡🇺🇸🙌#horsereligion
To be considered a “great” Coach, @Marcus_Freeman1 must start winning the games that matter most! And, I don’t wanna hear about that PI no call at the end! The @NDFootball didn’t deserve to win, period, end of story. One can only hope that they’ll gain from this loss! ☘️

As much as many are quick to point out, “how did Ka Ying get beat”, the runner-up from last year, Tempted, is no joke! 6 straight wins — 10 for her career, just the second mare to ever win the race. #TeamGodolphin’s 80th Australian G1 victory. 🙌 #Everest
Always great to be back in the Bluegrass @FasigTiptonCo for the sale next week where it most def feels like Fall this time around. And, enjoyed catching up with our friends @TaylorMadeSales for their Express Lane viewing this afternoon.📝 #horsereligion
