    • Probably but that was 7 years ago, so probably 120-130m now. It would make a big dent in it.
    • The casual remark from Ballesty about ' jumpouts and trials '  should have alarmed the hardworking Levin and Foxton committees.  Clearly the need for well-educated horses to attend racemeetings isn't high on his list. Of course,  it could be part of a Cunning Plan to force novice horses to trial on the despised polytracks.
    • Edited Press Release The Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA) and Jockeys' Guild, in partnership with the Congressional Mental Health Caucus, co-hosted a mental health roundtable on Tuesday, Sept. 16, in the U.S. Capitol. The event brought together jockeys and professional athletes from women's soccer and football to share their personal experiences and highlight both the common and unique mental health challenges they face. “We are committed to keeping the dialogue going on mental health challenges for professional jockeys,” said HISA CEO Lisa Lazarus. “The more we talk about it, the more jockeys feel they can reach out for help. We want them to know that mental health is as important as physical health—and that support is available.” “The well-being of our members extends far beyond the racetrack,” said Terry Meyocks, President and CEO of Jockeys' Guild. “By bringing jockeys together with athletes from other sports, we can shed light on shared struggles, reduce stigma and ensure riders know that resources and support are within reach.” Roundtable participants included Hall of Fame jockey John Velazquez; retired jockeys Trevor McCarthy and Rosie Napravnik; retired NFL player and recovery advocate Montee Ball, Jr.; and Ashley Hatch, forward for the Washington Spirit of the National Women's Soccer League. U.S. Representatives Paul Tonko (NY-20) and Andy Barr (KY-06), both long-time supporters of HISA, also delivered remarks. Rep. Tonko, whose district includes Saratoga Race Course, spoke about his work as a member of the Congressional Mental Health Caucus. Rep. Barr, whose district includes Keeneland, highlighted the interaction of recovery and workforce development within the equine world by presenting Frank Taylor with a statement entered into the Congressional Record. The statement recognized Taylor's organization, Stable Recovery, for its extraordinary work helping people achieve sobriety and build careers in the equine industry.

    • Looking at the state of some of them, 100mill is a shade on the light side, IMO.
