Its signature race offered 50 qualifying points to the winner toward the Derby and while Art Collector had basically locked up his place in the Kentucky Derby starting gate courtesy of his win in the Grade 2 Toyota Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland on July 11, the bay colt made sure to showcase how much upside is still within him. His 2-5 status on the odds board told of the expectations he carried in his ninth career start and, as has been the case in each outing since joining trainer Tommy Drury’s barn earlier this year, Art Collector didn’t disappoint in the least in leading virtu- ally every step en route to his fourth consecutive victory. “I’m surprised that my legs are still holding up underneath me,” Drury said. “It’s a big day for us. We got what we were looking for. We wanted to get enough out of this without over- doing it. [Jockey] Brian [Hernandez] even mentioned coming to the eighth pole that he was going a little too easy, Tom Drury/COADY PHOTO so he let the reins out a notch just to let him finish on up. He was going away from the end of it and that’s kind of been him every race this year. That’s all you can ask of one. Every time we throw something at him, he answers the question and handles it with flying colors.” Art Collector has proven during his recent streak he can win with virtually any kind of setup, having come from off the pace during his victory at Churchill Downs on May 17 and sitting a stalking trip in his Blue Grass Stakes triumph. When he got away without issue out of post four in the Ellis Park Derby, he used it as the latest opportunity to flaunt his frontrunning ability. After clicking off the opening fractions of :23.33 and :46.74 with 165-1 longshot Truculent sitting just off him in second, Art Collector faced a brief threat when Dean Martini loomed up approaching the far turn and Attachment Rate followed suit in the three-wide path. Attachment Rate did well to outrun his 14-1 odds and get place honors, but he was no match in the lane for Art Collector, who strided home in a final time of 1:48.02 over a track rated fast.

Aided by strategic acquisitions, we achieved record financial results, we reinforced our leadership in the racing industry, and we continued our development of a comprehensive simulcast product. These accomplishments underscore the value of our four-prong business strategy, which continues to guide us as we embark on an era in our industry that will be defined by marketing innovations and technological advances.

Our leadership teams’ quick actions to reduce our cost structure, preserve capital and provide additional financial resources in response to this crisis reflected the resilience necessary to weather these difficult times. We are proud of how our leadership team and our team members reacted quickly to the pandemic’s threat to our company and we want to personally thank each of them for their commitment and dedication. Their actions enabled our properties to reopen safely for our team members, our guests, and our communities. In 2020, despite the adversity that our team faced, our portfolio of businesses still generated over $1 billion of revenue and $287 million of Adjusted EBITDA. Also, we had a total shareholder return in 2020 of 43%—a return that significantly exceeded the S&P 500, the Russell 2000, and the S&P Midcap 400 Index. We are especially proud of the following 2020 accomplishments: Š In a very challenging environment, we safely ran the 146th Kentucky Derby, spectator-free on the first Saturday of September, generating double digit positive EBITDA. We protected the safety of our community and team members and also protected the reputation, the brand, and the long-term value of this iconic asset. Š Our TwinSpires Horse Racing business delivered record revenue and Adjusted EBITDA. Š The margin for our wholly-owned casino properties in the second half of 2020 was up 690 basis points excluding quarterly results for properties that were closed during this period.
