WESTLAKE RACING STABLE@westlakeracing·
DAY 57: $140,000,000+ SITTING STILL. THIS STARTED WITH THEM. REPOST THIS! 57 days ago, The Jockey Club publicly attacked @RepoleStable in an open letter. That’s when the industry started asking fair, direct questions. 57 days later… Still no answers. Still no action. Still no accountability. Let’s deal in facts: • $41 MILLION at @jockeyclub • $100 MILLION+ tied to @BreedersCup That’s $140,000,000+ connected to two organizations at the center of this sport. And we’re supposed to believe aftercare funding is “complicated”? No. It’s not complicated. It’s a choice. Because while: • A real, long-term aftercare plan already exists as presented by @RepoleStable • The industry is ready to engage RIGHT NOW Nothing happens. No urgency. No leadership. No movement. Just silence. So let’s be clear, this didn’t start with the industry. This started when The Jockey Club chose to go public. And when questions came back their way? They disappeared. Every day that $140M plus sits idle is a decision: A decision to delay A decision to deflect A decision the horses pay for Enough. The funding is there. The plan is there. The industry is ready. So what’s the hold up? @jockeyclub @BreedersCup Are you going to lead, or keep sitting on at least $140 million while everyone else carries the burden? The industry is watching. And we’re not going anywhere. Repost if you believe aftercare should be fully funded NOW.

@johng032 @YouTube Thanks John. Just FYI, "older entries" only showing back to ep4 on my end but that gives me a great backlog to listen through (looks like ep31/Bob Ike is the most recent?) Thanks again and good luck in your tournaments!

@ride_that_pony @HorseTourneys @NTRA My guess is that the NHC/NTRA reduced the price of the online tournament NHC seat. The math used to be $10,000 cost to the online host sites. Now it looks like a cost of 8,820. Just my guess.

Why would @HorseTourneys reduce the entry for @ntra NHC qualifiers? I’m not complaining but haters will not be tempted by a small decrease. Seems like a loss of revenue with no benefit.

Random horse racing question for HRT: What is happened for the last six weeks with the delay in results at @NYRA??? Places like Tampa official in 90 seconds. In New York now it is like five or six minutes until after a race? Why?

I shared my thoughts on @NTRA #nhc2026 in a the TDN this week. To borrow a phrase from the Beatles: “I get by with a little help from my friends.”
TDN@theTDN

"The NHC reminds me why I fell in love with this game in the first place. For three days, the conversation isn't about the problems with horse racing, it's about the puzzle and the payoff." @SteveDeCaspers is heading back to the @NTRA #NHC. thoroughbreddailynews.com/nhc-or-bust-a-…

@bobike1 @Quigleys_Corner Hi Bob, I do a podcast with InThe Money media called “And the Tournament Winner Was”. I interview prize winners about their strategy and how they think about playing the contest and end game strategy. Do you have any interest in discussing your UBC victory? Please let me know.

@andyserling I thought Bravaro had 3 perfect trips in a row and was a bit dressed up. He needs to go back to NY breds.

Couple other FoY thoughts...Bravaro was bad. The chart makes it seem like he had a LOT more trouble than he did. He basically followed the leader and had nothing. Does this downgrade the Holy Bull or did his perfect trip that day make him look better than he is? Just food...

@andyserling I’m not prepared to toss Napoleon just yet. He missed the break, had to rush up while being asked, unfamiliar spot, didn’t look like he handled the track very well and stopped. If he is going to be 2x or 3x the price next time, I’d give him another look.

...for thought. As for Napoleon Solo, he was dreadful. In all likelihood, if he is ever going to be successful again at a high level it will be going shorter and more likely on the front end. He was a little wide but hardly enough to account for that performance.

@MikeMutnansky @barstoolsports Liked your analysis on the Triple Crown preps. I lean to Class Prez tomorrow as well. Good luck if you play. Keep fighting for the NHC. Not just about picking winners. IMO, You need to take 2nd or 3rd capping choices in big contest fields if those horses are going to be value.

@ZhouTony Your 50/50 chances seem to be more like 60/40. Your tournament play is always great to watch.

@Pullthepocket Jock strangled the horse over 6f and was surprised when he was just a little short in the lane. Wtf. Let your horse run comfortably.
