After this year’s #KyDerby result, can we finally put an end to the practice of ditching the local rider that got a horse to the big dance for a name-brand jockey? It never seems to work, and it makes you look like a huge jerk when you take them off the mount.

Good people, good times, and good memories. It’s been a great trip to the #KyDerby and a pleasure to meet everybody that was able to make it! I look forward to the next meetup!! Good luck jockeys, I’ll see you on the track soon! 🏇🏻💙

Proud is not strong enough a word. The sires of yesterday's first and second place finishers in this most historic Kentucky Derby were trained right here with us. Congratulations to all connections of Keen Ice and Not This Time. #RichStrike #KYDerby #KeenIce #NotThisTime

Racehorses are injected-legally & otherwise, with myriad performance-enhancing, injury-masking, & pain-numbing chemicals. The horsemen’s credo is really quite simple: keep ’em out on the track, keep ’em earning, by whatever means necessary. #EndHorseracing #KyDerby #AnimalCruelty
