Remember Ben with a gift to Thoroughbred aftercare
Welcome to the new TDN Podcast page, which features a weekly racing discussion—the TDN Writers' Room—along with stories from the TDN Look and longer stories in the TDN which have been made into podcasts.
In the second installment of the TDN Business Hour, the conversation focused in on one of the most vital components of the racing economy in America today: the reliance on casino-funded purse subsidies. Host Najja Thompson, Executive Director of the New York Thoroughbred Breeders, explores these questions with Louis Cella, Damon Thayer and Bill Nader.
Tune in to the 2026 Kentucky Derby edition of the TDN Writers' Room. The crew takes a deep dive into the full field and NBC racing analyst joins in to take a wider look at the Derby, plus Saturday's undercard and Friday's Kentucky Oaks.
Mike Repole joined this week's TDN Writers' Room presented by Keeneland to discuss his criticisms of industry leaders and the future of the sport, as well as his Kentucky Derby contender Renegade and Oaks filly Zany.
