Big 'Cap Day at Santa Anita
This weekend features a trio of 50-Point Kentucky Derby preps. And it feels like we could start to have some separation at the top of the crop as of Saturday night. But, as they say, the race still has to be run.
After this week, I will be pleased with safe outcomes for all those involved with the knowledge that the high-quality racing that’s projected to take place is merely icing on the cake. To that end, if you haven’t had a chance to listen to Nick Luck’s shows from this week, it’s worth your time. He’s addressed the elephant in the room all week on his podcast and navigated the difficult situation in his usual professional manner.
With that, let’s move forward and hope for the best in this sport we all cherish.
MYWAYP,

Off Track with Maggie Wolfendale-Morley - Regal Slam
As a reminder, if you’d like to support the show and the cause, consider a donation to TRF.
Although her father, Daniel Conway, is a trainer, Katie Conway was in no way an experienced rider when she decided to give her stable favorite, Regal Slam, a career off the track. The leap of faith created an unbreakable bond between woman and horse and instilled in Katie a passion for OTTB’s.
