  • Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action Before the U.S
    Testimony of Marty Irby Executive Director Animal Wellness Action before the U.S. House Subcommittee on Commerce and Consumer Protection H.R. 1754, "The Horseracing Integrity Act" January 28, 2020 On behalf of Animal Wellness Action, one of the nation's leading animal protection organizations on Capitol Hill, I submit this testimony in support of H.R. 1754, the Horseracing Integrity Act. I express my sincere thanks to Chair Jan Schakowsky and Ranking Member Cathy McMorris Rodgers for conducting this hearing and offer special thanks to Representatives Paul Tonko, and, Andy Barr for introducing this reform effort. I also express thanks to Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Frank Pallone and Ranking Member Greg Walden for their participation in this process. This hearing builds on the testimony and other information gathered during the 2018 hearing conducted before the Subcommittee on H.R. 2651 in the 115th Congress. I first want to underscore that Animal Wellness Action does not oppose horseracing. We join with many horse owners, breeders, trainers, and racing enthusiasts in speaking out on the broader topic of the protection of horses within the American horseracing industry and across the greater equine world. We seek to promote the proper stewardship of horses at every stage of their lives, including during their racing careers. We are deeply concerned about on- and off- track risks to the horses, including catastrophic injuries sustained during racing. America was built on the backs of horses, and they have always played a central role in the economy and culture of the United States. We owe them a debt of gratitude, and the very least we must do is ensure their safety, welfare, and protection.

  • Introduction to Horse Racing Perhaps You've Been to the Track Before, Or
    Introduction to Horse Racing Perhaps you’ve been to the track before, or have dabbled in on-line wagering without ever taking it seriously or maximizing the enjoyment. Sure, you can play the races by betting on your favorite horse names, numbers or colors and get lucky, but what most people don’t understand is there is a method to the madness, and figuring out the results of a race based on the information provided, and processed, is fun and rewarding. The premise of a race is simple -- the first horse to the finish line wins, but if you make a wager, predicting the outcome ahead of time is what gets you paid. Horse racing is a fascinating game. At first glance, the information in the past performances of a race can be quite intimidating, but one you get a feel for how it works, and appreciate the majesty of the animals, horse racing can quickly develop into a hobby, or even a passion. With knowledge comes interest and with understanding comes intrigue. As an on-air racing analyst for Churchill Downs, the home of the Kentucky Derby, and currently at Fair Grounds, I am emphasizing “new fan friendly” analysis on the air through the remainder of the season, so if you’re new to the game and/or feel like you have a lot to learn, please tune in via twinspires.com, the Twin Spires App, or the Churchill Downs’ Roku channel, where you can access both live racing and a full-day replays. In the meantime, here is some fundamental information to get you started.

  • OVERVIEW the Field for This Year's Kentucky Derby Is
    OVERVIEW The field for this year’s Kentucky Derby is unusually strong. The winners of all of the major prep races---- Arkansas, Florida, California, Kentucky, New York, Louisiana and Dubai---were dominant. Two key angles this year: two horses, including race favorite Justify, are trying to break the “Curse of Apollo,” named after the last horse to win the Derby without having raced as a two-year old. The last time it happened was 1882! The other theme is the dominance by big time trainers. Four of the most renowned trainers in the world, Bob Baffert, Todd Pletcher, Chad Brown and Aidan O’Brien train all of the major contenders and it would be a surprise if a horse from somebody else’s barn won. Rain is in the forecast for Friday but Saturday is expected to be dry so track conditions are not likely to be a factor. I’ll assess every horse in the field, in post-position order. THE FIELD #1 FIRENZE FIRE - The post position is awful and the horse is too slow. #2 FREE DROP BILLY - Lousy post position but the horse is training well and could come from off the pace for a lesser placing. #3 PROMISES FULFILLED - He’s the likely pacesetter and may be on the lead for most of the race. But the pace is likely to be torrid and I doubt he’ll last. #4 FLAMEAWAY - Not likely but not impossible. He should be close to the pace and ran a good second to Good Magic in the Blue Grass at Keeneland.

(Saturday, May 26, 2018) – Kentucky Derby (Grade I) and Preakness (GI) winner Justify galloped 1 ½ miles Saturday morning at Churchill Downs with Humberto Gomez in the saddle as the undefeated colt continued preparing for the June 9 Belmont Stakes (GI). “I couldn’t be happier with the way things are going,” Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert ’s assistant Jimmy Barnes said. “Once again Bob told me to take it easy with him but he’s doing really well. We backed him up a little further in the stretch to begin his gallop this morning and went a good 1 ½ miles.” Baffert is expected to return to Churchill Downs on Monday morning to watch Justify train. Barnes, 58, has worked as Baffert’s assistant for nearly 20 years and oversees the development of the barn’s top horses including Triple Crown winner American Pharoah and champion Arrogate . “You have to get Bob a lot of credit,” Barnes said. “He’s stocked the pond well every year. You have to have the horse and the horsepower to compete in these classic races. We keep coming up with them and are very lucky. You do have to pinch yourself because you don’t know if you will have it every year.” Also training Saturday during the exclusive 7:30-7:40 a.m.
