Flay to Receive Earle Mack Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation Champion Award... Also on Thursday night, chef and racehorse owner Bobby Flay will receive the Earle I. Mack Thoroughbred Champion Award, annually given to an individual for outstanding efforts and influence on Thoroughbred racehorse welfare, safety and retirement. Flay has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Thoroughbred retirement, primarily through the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation. In 2008, after donating unique experiences centered around his food or restaurants to TRF auctions for many years, he served as the chef for a TRF fundraiser that Earle Mack TRF Champion raised over $300,000 in ticket Award sales alone. He is an outspoken proponent of owner responsibility to their horses, and has repurchased and retired several of his own homebreds and former racehorses to guarantee them a permanent lifetime home. Flay follows in the footsteps of Ogden Mills Phipps (2012) and Frank Stronach (2011) as recipients of the award. The award is an original sculpture by one of the world's most sought-after equine sculptors, the UK-based Nic Fiddian-Green. Fiddian-Green, who works primarily in bronze and in beaten lead, held his first exhibition in 1986, and has since been in demand by galleries and collectors alike: his work is now shown regularly in London, New York and Australia. He is best-known for his massive, classically inspired equine heads which are exhibited and installed around the world. Mack said that the choice of Flay as the recipient was a fitting one. AThe award suits him,@ said Mack. AIt=s a true original, just like he is.@
