A little national attention in Forbes! Thx @SportzBrew for covering plus a good explanation of the claiming game.

The Claiming Crown will be contested at Churchill Downs on November 15. Considered the "blue collar Breeders' Cup" it provides a big stage for lower level runners.

Very proud of my client @IowaHBPA for filing a lawsuit against the Iowa Racing & Gaming Commission for adopting β26 race dates @PrairieMeadows without horsemen approval. This step violates statute; I hope the court agrees so a better calendar with horsemen approval can be

Extremely proud of Mystik Dan and the amazing journey heβs taken us on. His future is bright as a stallion @AirdrieStud he has a rare combination of speed and stamina. Exceptionally brave and intelligent horse, he will pass this to his progeny.
Mystik Dan, winner of @KentuckyDerby 150, has officially been retired & will be paraded @ChurchillDowns on Saturday. The 4yo colt will come over with horses for Race 4 (2:28 pm ET) & will be showcased for public viewing in the paddock during that race. Thanks, @McPeekRacing!
