Sorry but I'm a sucker for guys and gals who go out of their way to help children have a better chance in life. He was interviewed yesterday on his weekly show I learned a lot about the man. If you have a few minutes its a great read.
Yes he is on the NYRA board as a Governors appointee (2008) and is trying his best to help racing grow. One would hope that a podcast (HINT) could be made from yesterday so more people can hear it. While this doesn't deflect the other issues one has to realize how many hours were put into this with no compensation except for knowing you did a good deed.
I'm not going to forget these people either many who critisize the horse industry will NEVER publish stuff like this.
When the project began, two other horse owners, Eugene and Laura Melnyk, pledged $1 million, and the center was named after their daughter.
