Winning Ponies

A big day of racing this Saturday at Indiana Grand Racecourse, with the $500,000 Indiana Derby (G2) and the $200,000 Indiana Oaks (G2) on tap, we invited William 'Buff' Bradley to discuss his career and his late father Fred's influence, Brass Hat's second career and the quirky The Player, who will run in the Indiana Derby. The 'Saratoga Tournament' is now offered as two separate one-day events instead of a two-day affair, and will take place Wednesday, Aug. 10, and Thursday, Aug. 11. Michael Beychok won’t have to buy his entry to the 2016 Saratoga Tournament, which was formally announced last week by the NYRA. Beychok has won two entries Saturday courtesy of DRF Tournaments. Michael Beychok will comment on the new format of the tournament and join John Engelhardt in 'capping the $750,000 Delaware Handicap (G1); the $300,000 Yellow Ribbon Handicap.(G2) at Del Mar and two Grade 2 races from Indiana Downs - the $500,000 Indiana Derby and $200,000 Indiana Oaks.
