I had the best time this weekend at @ColonialDowns for Virginia Derby 2026!  Congratulations to Incredibolt for a great win.

9,700 people came to @ColonialDowns to enjoy thoroughbred racing and try to catch a glimpse of a @KentuckyDerby runner. Close to $8m wagered. 3 years ago this day was on a white board with hundreds of details to sort out. Kudos @FAHopf and Colonial team! Racing in VA is on 🔥!

Our new spot pays tribute to the unsung heroes who contribute to a horse's growth and success. Thanks for all that you do! #VAbred
