Players' Newsletter - June 3rd, 2022
I’ll be parting The Brooklyn Bunker for the weekend and heading to the Jersey Shore — Monmouth Park. Please feel free to reach out via Twitter or our contact page, I’d love to show off the new fixed odds setup there and maybe even grab a drink!
Even if you aren’t heading out, we have plenty of coverage of the weekend action at Monmouth on the site. Matt Vagvolgyi, Dallas Baker, and I all sat down and discussed the entire Saturday card. Make sure to check it out.
Finally, earlier this week we lost one of racing’s greatest legends, Lester Piggott. Last year, I was able to speak to Lester about his 1990 Breeders’ Cup Mile win as part of the Eclipse Award winning project, Breeders’ Cup Magical Moments. You can check out our conversation on attheraces.com here.
