I hope all of you stay healthy and for now find simple joy from the safety of home. The Summer Meet at Keeneland should provide an excellent distraction from the seclusion of today’s safety precautions. I look forward to the day I can provide my fans with more pictures from the track. Keep checking back with Thoroughbred U for all the joy that racing brings.
