Players' Newsletter - April 28th, 2023
We’re one week away from Kentucky Oaks day, which means there is no better time to be following In the Money Media Network. We’ve already been cranking out Kentucky Oaks and Derby content over the past week. Over on YouTube, we have plenty of exclusive content to our channel goin on. I had the privilege of sitting down with NBC’s Jerry Bailey and Randy Moss over there to talk the two big races. Check it out below.
Below you’ll find even more coverage, with individual profiles, our contender tracker, various outlooks for the Derby, trivia shows, and more! Make sure to get involved. We’ll also have Monster Pods available for the Derby and the Oaks early next week.
If you want to get involved with this weekend’s action, make sure to check out today’s Players’ Podcast. We talk Derby of course, but also preview tomorrow’s racing from Santa Anita, Woodbine, and Aqueduct.
Finally, in case you missed it earlier this week, regular ITM guest Jay Privman posted a great video telling Fernando Toro he was now a hall of famer. It’s a must watch!
