As we all continue our retraining journey with our Thoroughbred Makeover potentials, there is still one thing that lingers on my mind … what discipline will I enter? The Thoroughbred Makeover makes it so enjoyable and easily geared toward whatever your horses needs might be. Historically, I have competed in Dressage, Show Hunter, and Competitive Trail. However, this year the more I ride and train with Goldie, the more unsure I become about what I should choose.

The constant hustle and bustle of the racing industry is what propels it forward. Each year, a new select set of 3-year-olds begin their journey to the Run for the Roses at Churchill Downs for a chance at glory on a national stage – one which last week garnered the biggest audience on NBC Sports since the Super Bowl.

On Friday, May 19, TAA will be recognized with a named race on the undercard of Black-Eyed Susan Day. On Saturday, May 20, TAA will present the Sir Barton S. Sponsored by Brandon and Diannah Perry, who entered into an agreement to annually donate $100,000 to the TAA as the title sponsor for three consecutive years beginning with the Preakness 147.
On both Black-Eyed Susan and Preakness Day, the TAA will host the Best Turned Out Awards in the winner's circle for each race.
Throughout the week, TAA will facilitate winning guests from one of the VIP experiences auctioned off earlier this year in the “Off to the Races” campaign. In addition to the Pre-Preakness Party and a weekend of racing, this experience also includes a sunrise tour, the Alibi Breakfast, and access to join the simulcast for a race on the Black-Eyed Susan undercard. Guests will also join the winner's circle for the Sir Barton on Preakness Day. This experience celebrating the second leg of the Triple Crown was donated by 1/ST RACING and America's Best Racing.
