Players' Newsletter - November 18th, 2022
Make sure to catch up on the early week content over the past few days! The Owner’s Box crew was joined by one of the country’s leading owners, Mike Repole, and the Players’ Podcast hosted two excellent guests. Trainer Jonathan Wong talked his Kentucky string and our friend Marshall Gramm joined to give an update on ITM’s favorite horse, Looms Boldly!
Two late week Players’ Podcast episodes this week to get you ready for tomorrow’s racing action. Jessica Paquette stopped by yesterday to discuss the first few days of her new gig at Parx and covers the Aqueduct Saturday Pick 6. ITM’s own BCBC champ Drew Coatney also makes an appearance for a look at the latter portion of the Woodbine card Saturday.
The second Players’ Podcast kicks off with a tribute to Dave Liftin, who passed earlier this week. There’s also coverage from coast-to-coast and sea-to-sea with previews of races at Churchill, Del Mar, and in Japan.
