The Friday Show Presented By Monmouth Park: A Publisher’s Retrospective
Publisher Ray Paulick has interviewed all sorts on The Friday Show, but this time around, the spotlight is on him.
On this week's episode, bloodstock editor Joe Nevills asks Ray about his beginnings, both in horse racing and covering the sport, which horses inspired him along the way, and what about the sport compelled him to make it a career.
Ray and Joe also discuss how the Thoroughbred industry, and reporting on it, has changed in the three-plus decades since Ray moved to Kentucky.
We then unveil a new and improved Star of the Week segment, in which the hosts look at a notable winner from the previous week at Woodbine.
Watch this week's show, presented by Monmouth Park, below:
