The Friday Show Presented By Monmouth Park: Conquest Daddyo Comes Home

Chances are if you've been to Woodbine racetrack in Toronto, Ontario, you've crossed paths with the entertainment and celebrity blogger/photographer who goes by the name of Mr. Will Wong on various social media platforms.

Will is an unabashed fan of Thoroughbred racing who began going to the track with his family at a very young age. Over the years, he's become friends with many of the men and women who care for the horses and he shares their passion for the animals.

Sarah Volpe, one of those friends, groomed a horse named Conquest Daddyo when he was trained by Mark Casse for the Conquest Stable. When the stable was dispersed in 2016, Volpe said goodbye to the Scat Daddy colt who the year before had won Woodbine's Grade 2 Summer Stakes and then finished fourth in the G1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf at Keeneland.

After he was sold, Volpe and Wong watched with concern as Conquest Daddyo began a long slide down the claiming ranks over the next several years, eventually winding up racing at the bottom level of bush tracks in Montana and Alberta, Canada. Will and Sarah reached out multiple times to the horse's connections in hopes that they might entertain an offer from them to buy Conquest Daddyo, retire him from racing, and bring him back to Ontario, where Sarah would once again be his caretaker. It's taken four years and lots of perseverance and network building, but they finally succeeded.

Will joins Paulick Report publisher Ray Paulick and news editor Chelsea Hackbarth on this week's Friday Show to talk about his experience. The story is told in greater detail at his website. Ray and Chelsea review the Queen's Plate performance by the Woodbine Star of the Week, Safe Conduct.

Watch this week's show, presented by Monmouth Park, below:
