Following a big weekend of racing that showcased Triple Crown prospects Greatest Honour in the Fountain of Youth and reigning 2-year-old champion Essential Quality in the Southwest Stakes, all hell broke loose with a series of stories that diminished racing's on-track activities in favor of unsavory events taking place off the track.
In this week's edition of the Friday Show sponsored by Rowayton – standing at Diamond B Farm in Pennsylvania – Paulick Reporter publisher Ray Paulick is joined by bloodstock editor Joe Nevills and news editor Chelsea Hackbarth to review a week that featured an on-camera jockey fight and an incident involving a trainer in the Ireland posing for pictures while sitting on a dead horse – all while animal rights protesters were trying to shut down racing at Golden Gate Fields in Northern California.
Some strong opinions on these matters are shared in this week's show.
Plus there is our Star of the Week and a Toast to Vino Rosso, taking a look at one of the early foals from the first crop by the Spendthrift Farm stallion.
