Horse Capital TV App Adds Podcast
On your phone or your Smart TV platform, download the free Horse Capital TV app to watch episodes of Horse Capital TV featuring all breeds and disciplines in Central Florida, with a focus on Florida Thoroughbreds. In addition, the app is great to listen to or view FTBOA’s new, The Florida Horse Podcast, featuring topics and personalities related to the Florida Thoroughbred industry. The segments and podcasts are typically 10 to 15 minutes long. Wire to Wire Racing Digest Updates
If you haven’t been opening your Wire to Wire Racing Digest coming to your e-mail inbox at 6 p.m. five nights per week, you have missed the new features that have been recently added. Brock Sheridan, editor-in-chief, produces original feature content and has added special features including Florida-breds in weekend stakes and their results, area connections to Breeders’ Cup, enhanced coverage of Floridabreds in the sales, and consignor successes.
These join the proprietary lists that are available only in Wire to Wire and nowhere else which include Florida stallion progeny in races and the list of breeders with progeny in races.
We send Wire to Wire to industry stakeholders, FTBOA members and licensees. If you are not receiving Wire to Wire, please notify our offices so we can confirm your email and/or ensure your server or e-mail provider is not blocking delivery. TFH
