The directional aviation company Sentient Jet will sponsor Combatant (Scat Daddy) in Saturday's GI Kentucky Derby in an effort to promote awareness for Homes for Our Troops, a non-profit organization supported by the colt's owners, Winchell Thoroughbreds and Willis Horton Racing. Homes for Our Troops builds and donates specially adapted custom homes nationwide for severely injured post-9/11 veterans. Sentient Jet will host a group of veterans on the backside of Churchill Downs Thursday and at the races Saturday. “As we head into our third year as the preferred private aviation partner of the Kentucky Derby, we are excited to mark this milestone with a special contribution to the community. We are honored to support Team Combatant and the important cause this impressive horse represents,” said Andrew Collins, president and CEO of Sentient Jet.
