@WinStarCEO@SpeedSilks Serious question. How are these silks different from what Rhonda Allen developed in the late 1980s?
Track and field now doing similar thing. https://t.co/mmsD5vUBuP
Thanks to everyone who have reached out, CT scan, MRI and X-ray came out clear. Thank God nothing is broken, just my back and shoulders are sore from the horses running over me.
Please keep praying for Martin and Walter🙏🏻
Woodbine and Metrolinx welcomed Premier Doug Ford and Minister of Transportation Prabmeet Singh Sarkaria yesterday to the construction site of the future Woodbine GO Station. As this project progresses, so does our excitement for the transformative development planned for the lands surrounding Woodbine Racetrack.
Who else raised three Kentucky Derby winners and sang with Waylon Jennings?
What a life Arthur Hancock lived. Gone too soon, for certain, but left his imprint in so many ways. https://t.co/UnB7ZpgrpE
Arthur B. Hancock III died peacefully earlier today at his home at Stone Farm near Paris, Ky., with family by his side. He had waged a long battle with pancreatic cancer.
Arthur made his mark in the horse industry in so many ways – as a Thoroughbred owner, breeder and consignor and more importantly as someone who fought tirelessly for a cleaner, drug-free sport. He and wife Staci were the heart and soul of the Water Hay Oats Alliance, pushing for national medication policies that came to fruition with the creation of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority.
His impact was worldwide; selling Sunday Silence to Zenya Yoshida's Shadai Farm when American breeders showed little interest in breeding to the 1989 Horse of the Year reshaped Japan's Thoroughbred industry, helping make it a global force.
Arthur was inducted into the National Museum of Racing Hall of Fame last year as a Pillar of the Turf, a most deserved honor. He'll be inducted posthumously in the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame next month. He loved family, horses and music, a pretty solid trifecta.
Staci Hancock said arrangements will be forthcoming. Condolences to his family and his many friends throughout the world.
As Co-Chair of the Congressional Wild Horse Caucus, I am leading a letter requesting a review of @BLMNational’s Wild Horse and Burro Program following reports that wild horses are being slaughtered.
This practice must end now, and we must ensure our icons of the West receive the protections they are guaranteed by federal law.
Giddy up on the LIRR! 🏇

Finally, after 14 months of uncertainty, my fix to restore the 100% tax deduction for gambling losses has been passed out of committee.
I was the first Member of Congress to recognize this injustice when I introduced my provision to correct it on July 7, 2025. Since then, I have amplified this issue nationally and brought it to the attention of my colleagues, including members of @WaysandMeansGOP.
Now it is time for us to push this commonsense solution to the House floor, to the Senate, and finally to the President’s desk. I won’t stop fighting until we get this over the finish line.
The most important moment of the 2026 Keeneland September sale happened in 2011. Seriously.
That's when the Edward P. Evans dispersal sent world-class bloodlines across the industry. The ripples are felt through breakout sire Gun Runner & a slew of mares. https://t.co/jOdMIHFi20
