So, you've won the Kentucky Derby. What comes next?
For Ramiro Restrepo, co-owner of 2023 Derby winner Mage, what came next was an urgent search for a phone charger, followed by an outpouring of love and congratulations unlike anything he'd ever seen.
Restrepo, who co-owns Mage with OGMA Investments, Sterling Racing, and CMNWLTH, is a fifth-generation member of the horse racing industry, tracing back to his great-great grandfather, who owned racehorses in Colombia in the 1800s.
He is currently the South Florida field representative for auction company Fasig-Tipton, after cutting his professional teeth in the Miami nightlife hospitality scene, and later working in marketing with various beverage companies.
On this week's episode of The Friday Show, Restrepo joins publisher Ray Paulick and bloodstock editor Joe Nevills to discuss the moments during and after Mage's Derby victory, what he saw in the colt at last year's Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale, and how the partnership was put together to send Mage to the track.
