TDN Writers' Room Podcast, Episode 42 with Guest Tom Amoss | June 24, 2020

With a newly-minted Grade I winner in his barn and another set to hit the track this weekend, trainer Tom Amoss joined the TDN Writers' Room podcast presented by Keeneland Wednesday morning for an illuminating discussion that covered a wide variety of topics, big and small. Calling in via Zoom as the Green Group Guest of the Week, Amoss explained the success of barn stars No Parole (Violence) and Serengeti Empress (Alternation), talked about what he's learned from branching out into broadcasting and offered his take on why racing has a difficult time catching cheating trainers.

Amoss has gained attention outside of his training accomplishments for his role as an analyst on the NYRA-produced America's Day at the Races broadcast on Fox Sports 1. He talked about how his impressions of the sport have shifted with his new part-time job and the importance of racing's presentation in the current climate.

Elsewhere on the show, the writers recapped the GI Belmont S. and the breathtaking performance of Gamine (Into Mischief) in the GI Acorn S. and looked forward to another big weekend of racing. In the West Point Thoroughbreds news segment, the crew discussed the developments in fans being allowed on track in some parts of the country and whether or not that will extend to the GI Kentucky Derby.
