StreamHorseTV will welcome additional special guests to the roster for the Trailblazing Horsewomen: Racing Edition, a 90-minute livestream featuring conversations with extraordinary women in horse racing about the past, present, and future for females in the industry. The event is brought to you by Starlight/StarLadies Racing.
NBC equine sports analyst and former jockey Donna Brothers, pioneering female jockey Diane Crump, Hall of Fame trainer Janet Elliot, racing's winningest female jockey and Hall of Famer Julie Krone, and steeplechase veteran Jo Motion will be joined by Patti Barton – the leading female jockey in the United States from 1972 until four years after her retirement in 1984 (and mother of Donna Brothers).
And the founders of the Thoroughbred Ladies Cocktail Club – Katie Taylor of Taylor Made Sales and Carrie Brogden of Machmer Hall Farm — will bring viewers an insider discussion aimed toward the next generation of young women looking to get in — and stay in — the business. Taylor and Brogden started the Thoroughbred Ladies Cocktail Club to bring women throughout the horse industry together in a place where they can be themselves with no pressure, no rules, and no agenda.
Our distinguished guests' collective experience spans over three quarters of a century, and you won't want to miss their stories, wisdom and advice.
We will salute the 2022 theme, #BreaktheBias, embracing the avenue to breakthroughs for future generations to find opportunity across the industry.
Viewers are encouraged to comment and ask your questions for our Trailblazers!
Tune-in to hear about Crump's historic first female ride in the Kentucky Derby, Elliot's record-breaking run to surpass her former boss in wins, Krone's unmatched competitive edge, Motion's ascent from riding as a 'stable lad' in wartime England, to working alongside steeplechase's notable names, and Brothers' journey from jockey to TV analyst, the story behind StarLadies Racing, and why she wrote her book, Inside Track: An Insider's Guide To Horse Racing.

About Trailblazing Horsewomen
The Racing Edition event marks the second installment of Trailblazing Horsewomen, a program launched by StreamHorseTV Director of Content Natalie Mayrath in 2021 as a celebratory gathering for horse-lovers to learn and be inspired by the groundbreaking women of the industry. Mayrath is a former digital producer on Women and Money for Yahoo Finance and series producer of “The Vanguard,” an Emmy-nominated documentary series about influential women in the media world.
“After the overwhelmingly positive response to the first Trailblazing Horsewomen event, we knew we had to continue these conversations, which strongly align with our mission to build an inclusive community across equine sports. You'll find that this group of exceptional ladies is bound by their ultimate passion for horses, and collectively they've spent decades on the front lines, literally blazing a path for others to follow, which is what this show is all about.”
