This podcast has all the results from the O’Brien Awards with special props to Garnet Barnsdale, winner in the Written Work Category and Dr. Ian Moore, owner-trainer of horses that prevailed in 4 categories, including Horse of the Year. Jason Portuondo co-hosted with Ken Middleton and Portuondo is also half the equation (with Chad Rozema) of the new Horse Racin’ Around the World on HPI. We have coverage of the Eclipse Awards in which the best horses in the U.S. got their silverware. Ontario Racing’s Jonathan Zammit reveals how harness horsemen can get compensation as their horses sit idle. This podcast has stretch calls of the Holy Bull and Robert B Lewis Stakes, precursors to the Kentucky Derby. Jennifer Morrison tells us that she’s going to write the book on Mighty Heart, the one-eyed colt who won the Queen’s Plate and the Prince of Wales last year. And have a listen to what ensues when a developmentally arrested host presses the Winbak Farms manager to explain how harness stallions provide for their mares when denied the actual physical embrace.
