Opening day at the venerable Saratoga Race Course is less than a week away, but trainer Rick Schosberg has his eye further down the road for the horses that will be competing in upstate New York.
On this week's episode of The Friday Show, bloodstock editor Joe Nevills speaks with Schosberg about his role as president of the TAKE2 Second Career Thoroughbred Program and TAKE THE LEAD Program in New York, and what makes aftercare such an important issue for him to pursue.
They also discuss the upcoming New York Thoroughbred Aftercare Day to be held at Saratoga on Wednesday, July 21, the importance of full industry cooperation in the aftercare effort, and what elements are important to sustain a reputable aftercare operation.
Defending Canadian Horse of the Year Mighty Heart is our Woodbine Star of the Week, returning to his home country to earn his first graded stakes victory with a front-running triumph in the Grade 3 Dominion Day Stakes.
