Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted May 13, 2019 Journalists Share Posted May 13, 2019 The TAA will parnter with StableDuel and friends of the Maryland Jockey Club to present best turned-out awards on Black-Eyed Susan and Preakness Days at Pimlico. The Friends of MJC, a a group that includes Erin McElwee, Super C Racing, Jim Wolf, Helen Marshall, Tracy O’Dowd, and John Lenzini, will sponsor a cash prize and gift back to be awarded to the winning groom for every race on the card, while StableDuel will sponsor those items on Preakness Day. “StableDuel is extremely proud to support the TAA and its acknowledgement of all of racing’s hard-working members that so often go unrecognized,” StableDuel CEO Augie Greiner said. “StableDuel was founded with the purpose of giving back and supporting the horse racing industry and we are extremely grateful for all the professionals that are critical to this sport and look forward to saluting the winning grooms on Preakness Day.” “I have been blessed to live my dream as a racehorse owner for 10 years,” said Erin McElwee, the organizer behind the Friends of MJC sponsorship. “The grooms that have unconditionally loved and cared for my horses always hold a special place in my heart. Any chance that affords them an opportunity to shine and be recognized is triumph for our industry. I hope to encourage and challenge other owners to support the TAA and other organizations that advocate for our athletes in their second careers. If we all make a commitment to donate, sponsor, or volunteer the development of this mission will be incredibly rewarding.” The post TAA to Partner With StableDuel, Friends of MJC on Best Turned-Out Awards appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
