  • Download the 2019 NYTB Awards Dinner Program
    Thank you to the men and women of the New York Thoroughbred industry, who have pulled together to help our horses, our backstretch community and each other in trying times. We are proud to represent you. Together, we will weather the storm. 2 A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO OUR PARTNERS Awards Dinner Sponsored By Platinum Partners Gold Partners Chester & Mary Broman Silver Partners Bronze Partner Greenberg Traurig, LLP Industry Partners Adirondack Trust Company • Capital OTB 3 A MESSAGE FROM THE NYTB EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Historically, the New York breeding and racing communities gather every April for NYTB’s New York-Bred Divisional Champions Awards Banquet to celebrate the previous year’s racetrack achievements of the New York Thoroughbred Breeding and Racing Program. We present a video program showcasing all the equine nominees, and crown the New York-bred divisional champions one-by-one before announcing the New York-bred Horse of the Year and Broodmare of the Year. We also honor the most successful human program participants of the year. It is always a wonderful celebration. In April 2020, we are all navigating the uncharted waters of the COVID-19 pan- demic. In a situation unlike any other in our collective experience, individuals, busi- nesses, organizations and institutions are striving to keep our horses, employees, families and selves safe and well. Accordingly, in March we decided to cancel our Awards Banquet. We realized this would be a disappointment for the connections of our divisional championship nominees, but it was the right choice. Then, we forged ahead to try to make the best of a difficult situation.

As it is now nearly 20 years since the magnificent Alydar met his horrific death at Calumet, we cannot expect to see him cropping up as the broodmare sire of many more Grade I winners of the calibre of Gio Ponti. This champion turf horse recently repeated his 2009 victory in the Man O= War S. and this welcome return to the winner=s circle has pushed the Tale of the Cat horse=s earnings past the $4-million mark. With his youngest daughters already 19 years old, the number of active producers among Alydar=s 320 broodmare daughters must be dwindling fast, so we are nearing the end of a very productive era.
