With a combined following of over 14 million on social media, influencer Griffin Johnson is eagerly venturing into a new arena as he awaits the debut of his racehorse, Sandman, on June 27 at Churchill Downs. Although this marks Johnson’s first ownership stake in a Thoroughbred, horses have always been a significant part of his life.
Not long ago, I was walking through a shedrow and stopped to congratulate the trainer on a gutsy win. They commented that the horse has a ton of try, and anytime it went off form there was a reason. This was something I was already noticing but hadn’t really thought to put words to or consider what, exactly, it really meant overall. Â
