--> 00:04:56.639 Thanks, Greg. 00:04:56.879 --> 00:04:57.519 Glad to be here. 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:01.519 Yeah, and I know you're both ecstatic to be on here uh with me. 00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:04.959 But uh so, David, I'm gonna start with you. 00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:07.040 So we have a new website. 00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.639 Uh this, of course, airs two days after our launch. 00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:15.199 Kind of get in the basis of why why did we need a new website? 00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:28.079 Well, you know, Stan ESearch has been around for I think this is our 21st year this year, and uh the platform it was built on uh is 20 years old. 00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:34.079 And so three or four years ago, the Jockey Club began talking to us about it. 00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:53.279 Some point we're gonna have to look at figuring out a new platform to uh you know keep up with the internet, and so uh not wanting to wake up some morning and half of our site not working, uh we probably started working on this project uh a couple of years ago. 00:05:53.839 --> 00:06:04.480 Pretty long project, uh with a lot of people involved, and we are glad that we're gonna be on a brand new platform that I think everybody's gonna love. 00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:12.720 Well, I came on board with Dani Church about probably two, two and a half years ago full time. 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:18.319 And you know, there was a lot to be done to get this rolling. 00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:25.120 You know, David was a little apprehensive because you know, it's a big job and we have a product that wasn't broken. 00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:28.240 It's it's been great, it's just the way of the future. 00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:31.279 And so I kind of had to talk him into it a little bit. 00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:32.480 I begged him. 00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:42.240 And finally he he jumped off and uh we started working on it, like you said, about two years ago, and it's just been a a big work in progress, and um, here we are. 00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:57.199 David, one of the stories you shared with me is that uh the programmers over at the jockey club were discussing that they actually have to go back and relearn some of the old programming in order to have handled some of the old stuff on our website. 00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:07.759 They're more in tune on on, of course, where the current modern website is is right at this moment, but they actually had to go relearn how to do the old thing back in the day. 00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:30.000 Yeah, when we started this, uh gosh, there were actually two people I worked with at the jockey club, you know, they were just programmers, and I would uh lay out stuff on Photoshop of what I wanted something to look like and email it to them, and I would get on the phone and say, okay, I want this to do this. 00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:35.680 And they would take my Photoshop pages and you know, turn them into HTML. 00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:47.439 And then over the years, as we

kept adding more and more things, such as our qualifiers list, our cell results, all those kind of things, we just kept adding on, adding on, adding on. 00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:55.120 As different programming languages changed, you know, some of it would be in some kind of language and some of it would be in another part. 00:07:55.360 --> 00:08:15.519 And so it was just kind of piecemealed together over, you know, 20 years where this uh new site is brand new platform that's gonna last us another 20 years, and we're like really excited about uh you know what people are gonna see and how they're gonna be able to use this new site. 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:22.639 When I came on board, I looked at the uh back end of the website and I've I've worked on a lot of websites. 00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:29.040 I've I've worked uh I've been on a lot of different projects on the back end and content management system. 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:35.120 And I looked at the back end of the website and I was like, uh I've never seen anything like it. 00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:42.879 Because he started so long ago, you know, when he was a pioneer of it, you know, nobody else had a website quite like this. 00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:48.080 So like you said, it was pieced together and I I you know, I I made a lot of comments. 00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.320 I just never had worked on something like that. 00:08:50.399 --> 00:09:01.440 So now we have a really a brand new content management system that you know it drives like a Ferrari and uh it's I'm really excited to start using that. 00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:09.360 Well, would you say it was like a 74 Buick back in the day before it became a well I love 74 Buick. 00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:28.639 I I would say the Jockey Club just it took a they they have a three-month project of just going through the old site, uh through every line of code to come back to be able to give us a bid and what we needed to do for a new site. 00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:49.360 And uh we literally had like over a million lines of code that you know in the old site that we had to just you know redo all that and we had uh to uh bring the history that we had in the 20 years, we didn't want to lose that. 00:09:49.600 --> 00:09:54.879 So we spent a lot of money bringing most of that stuff, you know, with us. 00:09:54.960 --> 00:10:06.320 So when you go to the the news site, you'll still be able to have access to a lot of uh the uh all the sales data for the last you know uh 15, 16 years. 00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:09.360 Um uh all party races. 00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:10.000 Yeah. 00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:12.320 So when you know things like that. 00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:36.399 So when we decided to put this all together, there was a game plan and kind of several Powell situations where we thought about things that we wanted to improve and things that we wanted to continue on and make sure that because in in the long run, we wanted to make sure it felt and it drove just like what stallionesearch.com has always done that the person that's going on on a daily basis. 00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:41.679 Sometimes I've heard people go on it 13, 14, twelve twenty times a day. 00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:48.159 Uh those types of people, we wanted them to it we wanted it to feel familiar with them. 00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:57.200 So, but when we were all putting this together, Leanne and David, what were some of the things that you wanted to improve and you were looking to continue on? 00:10:57.840 --> 00:11:04.720 Well, I would say one of the biggest things we wanted to improve upon is our sales database. 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:22.000 We are the only people out there that have a database um that's this complete, that's searchable, that you can go and find not only the horse's name by Dan, by Sire, by sex. 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:25.120 There's a lot of new features that we added to that. 00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:31.120 But we also added um the self database to each stallion's page. 00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:45.759 So that's one of the biggest features that I'm so excited about sharing with everybody is our self database on the stallion pages, and where you can look it up by sex, uh, wearly, different different options. 00:11:46.080 --> 00:12:01.840 Well, I wanted I wanted to continue the tradition of uh, you know, these the st again the stallion pages, but add to that uh and besides the you know, where you can now search uh Stallion sale information on his page. 00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:13.360 Uh there's also uh a rankings uh uh tab on his page, so you can see all the stars lists that he's ranked on uh from there. 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:20.720 And then another thing is our old site, the stallion's female line, got updated once a year. 00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:28.399 This those are gonna be updated monthly now, uh, and the uh progeny reports are gonna be updated week to week. 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:34.399 The stallion rankings will be updated daily, and that's a new feature that we will have. 00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:53.200 Uh each stallion will show not only the um you know overall ranking, but also uh leading fires by two-year-olds, leading first year, second year, third year fires, and one of our newest features is leading all-time fires. 00:12:53.440 --> 00:13:05.679 So we have that list obviously in our leading rearboard list, but also it's gonna go on each individual stallion page where you can see where that stallion ranked in the leading siers list. 00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:08.559 So that's a really fun new feature that we didn't have before. 00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:13.759 And also on that all-time list, something that's new besides the leading size. 00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:20.080 We also have the all-time leading brewbinner siers, and we also have for the first time the all-time leading dams. 00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:27.039 So you're gonna be able to see the top 50 uh dams uh by earnings, you know, of what they produced. 00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:34.639

Uh, and then we also have the all-time leading uh money earners list that uh we hadn't had in the past. 00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:40.159 So you'll be able to see the top 50 uh quarter horses by uh earnings. 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:53.200 All these lists update daily, and there's not anywhere else in the industry that you can find those updated daily, and the all-time leading fires do not update daily. 00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:57.039 Anywhere else that I've seen that I know of, they're all yearly updates. 00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:58.159 That's a big deal. 00:13:58.639 --> 00:13:59.440 It is a big deal. 00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:13.840 One of the things you also pointed out to me, Leanne, is that and you you had mentioned it in a meeting with me and David, is that there's just so many features, and as you already mentioned earlier in this discussion, is that styling eSearch necessarily wasn't broken. 00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:20.799 Uh, we're actually converting over to a the new website when the old website still was functioning. 00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:24.320 We're just improving and and moving into the future with this new site. 00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:34.000 But one of the things that you had pointed out, there were so many features uh that existed on the the old site uh that probably were very underutilized. 00:14:34.080 --> 00:15:01.600 And the fact of the matter is we got the opportunity with this new website to kind of point some of those features out and maybe have them rise to the top of of some of the uh things that people didn't realize that uh Stallion eSearch was capable of doing this, and now because you know it's going to be like a reintroduction, or or better yet, it's the first time that they're actually going to see it on this new site, and but it in fact it actually existed on the old. 00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:03.600 Let me tell you something. 00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:09.600 I have been a stallion eSearch user for or 20 years. 00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:18.720 I've been a Stallion eSearch user for 20 years, and I mean I went to it every single day before I started working for Stalin ESearch and and now too. 00:15:19.039 --> 00:15:24.720 When I came on board, I there were so many features that I had never even seen. 00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:27.919 And I've been using it every day for a very long time. 00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:46.480 And so I think that this new platform is going to you know, a lot I think a lot of people are gonna look at it and think, oh, they got a whole lot of new stuff, but they've never seen it because they just they you know, it's just been a a a work in progress over the years, so some some things were hidden and things like that. 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:52.879 So I think that it's gonna open up a lot of new features that people haven't even seen, but it's always been there. 00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:58.480 I I think the the sales section is is what's gonna really blow people away. 00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:14.559 Uh a lot of that's been there before, but it's a lot of it we've got new uh things that they can search by and everything, but you can go back and search, you know, all the sales and searching by SARS, you can search by dams, you can search by a horse. 00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:22.159 If you're looking to buy a horse, you can put his name in and find out how many times he sold before at auction and where and how much they brought. 00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:24.559 Uh there's just a lot of stuff. 00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:27.759 There's a section there, state of the market. 00:16:28.080 --> 00:16:58.320 So you can actually go and look uh over the last ten years how the quarter horse racing business, you know, markets doing, you know, uh and compare it year by year of uh buy yearlings, greenlings, you know, embryos, uh brood mares to compare and see how the market, you know, is doing in the business, or you're wanting to get in the business is a great place to find that information uh called State of the Market that a lot that a lot of people probably never seen before. 00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:02.559 And we'll be right back after these words. 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:06.559 A tremendously talented stallion roster of Roboshow Ranch. 00:17:06.799 --> 00:17:22.880 Grade 1 producing Apolitical Blood, multiple stakesire, and grade one winning Gold Heart Eagle V, the sire of leading three-year-old beautiful, Kavian Corona, AQHA Champion Sire tempting Dash, and the All-American Juvenile winning Visa, all standing in Broadbridge, Louisiana. 00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:28.240 Check out the Eagles Fly Hire yearling and the Riadoso Select sale. 00:17:28.559 --> 00:17:36.799 Hip number 325, who is a half-sibling to multiple stakes winners, and who has a catalog page littered with black type up and down the page. 00:17:37.119 --> 00:17:44.960 Check her out, the Philly, hip number 325, high flying sign at the Riadoso Select Sale, a daughter of Eagles Fly Higher. 00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:48.480 And he stands at Lacer in Opalousis, Louisiana. 00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:52.240 All right, back to the show. 00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:58.960 Another new feature that we have that I think people are gonna love is our calendar section. 00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:04.400 Uh, you know, whenever we we write race stories for every single stakes race out there. 00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:09.039 And I came on board and David did this for years by himself. 00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:15.920 And when I came on to help, uh, I started out writing stories, and that's what I was doing freelance at first. 00:18:16.079 --> 00:18:20.079 And I had no way of knowing what stakes races were going on. 00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:22.720 So I made a spreadsheet. 00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:31.119 So for years we've been using using an Excel spreadsheet to help keep track of all the stakes races coming up. 00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:43.680 So that is going to be a brand new feature on our website that has all the stakes races, the racing meets, also uh all the stallion

auctions, and the sale stakes. 00:18:43.759 --> 00:18:48.000 So that's a really new uh big feature that's new that I'm excited about. 00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:50.400 And David didn't want to do it. 00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:53.119 He didn't, and I talked him into it now, he loves it. 00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:54.640 Yeah, I love it now. 00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:55.359 It's great. 00:18:55.680 --> 00:19:07.599 Another exciting thing about the stakes calendar is we're gonna have the capability if the racetracks want to add their nomination forms, because you know, horsemen are always looking for nomination forms. 00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:16.160 We're able to attach that nomination form right by that race, you know, if the tracks want to put those out there, you know, where people can get to them. 00:19:16.480 --> 00:19:30.400 So when we had the planning stages, guys, we had plenty of other websites that we could kind of look out, and especially, you know, that's the thoroughbred side is very prevalent in the racing industry, and there's several great websites out there. 00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:40.240 And we had the opportunity to kind of look at some of those other websites that other than ours and kind of look about what we like about this one and like about that one. 00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:52.480 As an example, the Jockey Club Information Systems actually owns the blood horse, and so their programming was in the ballpark of ours, uh same company actually produces it. 00:19:52.640 --> 00:20:00.880 So some of the top features that we saw and liked on some of those pages, we incorporated into this new version of Stalinesearch. 00:20:01.039 --> 00:20:14.640 This is where you know we did, you know, the the old website, David uh designed to look kind of like the blood horse or had some ideas from them, but you know, there was a lot of things we did like about the blood horse. 00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:16.160 But David can tell you more about that. 00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:21.759 Yeah, I think we looked at the we looked at the blood horse because it's you know one of the top sites out there. 00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:34.079 Uh, but we ended up deciding, you know, people were used to using our site, so we wanted to keep it where when the first time they saw it, they were still familiar and could kind of find their way, you know, around. 00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:48.160 We did take a little from the blood horse, but I think we ended up in the the long run uh deciding it more for our, you know, what our users uh uh would be looking for whenever they open up the site. 00:20:48.480 --> 00:21:04.240 So one of the things that we were definitely good looking into and doing our due diligence and doing the research on, we we went into all the statistics as well as who's looking at the website and how are they looking at the website as most important. 00:21:04.640 --> 00:21:08.240 And there were some great, interesting findings come out of those stats, guys. 00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:15.519

Well, when I started, you know, we have Google Analytics, we've always had Google Analytics, or David has. 00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:25.440 Uh when I started looking at the numbers, it was astounding how many people were actually looking at our non-mobile webs on the phone. 00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:35.920 And, you know, just talking to people out in the industry, uh, one of the biggest things that I have heard from people is that we are not mobile friendly. 00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:47.920 And so if you can imagine, I mean, you're a user, people out there, you guys using um search forever, you have to look at it, stare at it, take your little finger and squish it up and move around. 00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:50.720 And uh it's just gonna be so much easier. 00:21:50.799 --> 00:22:01.920 So when I was looking at the numbers on Google Analytics, it showed that 70% of people coming to our site were actually looking at at us on mobile devices. 00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:05.759 And the majority of them were Apple, if anybody cares about that, I'm an Apple eater. 00:22:06.559 --> 00:22:13.359 But it was it was a um an astounding number, you know, so and it makes sense. 00:22:13.440 --> 00:22:24.079 You know, people wake up in the morning, they still do sit down at their computer and you know have their cup of coffee and uh look at us, you know, read read the news, go about their morning business. 00:22:24.160 --> 00:22:39.359 But then if they're out and about and somebody calls and they want to find out who was a high seller or they want to go look up on a stallion page and what his project was because he's in the barn talking to his buddy or whatever the case may be, they were they're using the phone right there in the barn. 00:22:39.599 --> 00:22:41.680 So it just makes it so much easier. 00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:47.519 And uh you know with this day and age it's pretty obvious everybody uses their phone for everything. 00:22:47.680 --> 00:23:02.480 So we've made it uh to where it's still kind of the same feel on uh the desktop we wanted to make sure that people could still navigate and find the the things in the right places that they're so used to. 00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:10.480 It's obviously got a makeover and looks different but uh we tried to keep it somewhat the same but the mobile is going to be completely different. 00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:12.079 It's going to blow people away. 00:23:12.720 --> 00:24:07.119 It's almost like an app you would use for you know any kind of app people people are used to using it's it's just it's amazing um how easy it is to find things readable the the percent of people using it are okay another great thing about the mobile app is uh the member stallion pages uh on the phone now when you go to a member stallion page uh it literally looks like they just have their own page made for the mobile just like they have their own page on the desktop and uh uh everything's one tap one tap to look at their progeny their auction results their rankings their pedigree their race record and one tap if they want to contact the farm uh and inquire about a breeding to the stallion so the I think people are going to love that. 00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:34.319 Absolutely putting it in one spot and the most important part of envision you're going through the shed row there at the Ridos of sale or the Heritage Place sale and you're wanting to look up those stale sales statistics in the past you would have had to gone down on the front page all the way to the bottom to the sales where it has that search results feature there and then you would have to go and and type in a bunch of information where now you can actually do that off of the stallion pages. 00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:45.200 Pertaining to that stallion yes yes and or you know it's also from the phone if you want to look up anybody it's just one click away it's right there in your face. 00:24:45.599 --> 00:25:31.599 Also what we tried to keep in mind is our advertisers because without them we wouldn't be able to give all this great information for free to the world uh so as everybody knows we have a lot of advertising on our pages this is how we keep it alive and we were able to keep all of the advertising on the desktop pretty much the same where it was and actually have a few more extra places for people to advertise and make that work in the mobile setting which is amazing because if anybody's ever changed over to mobile it's really hard to um work in your advertising so we're able to keep all that extra advertising that's on the desktop also into the mobile. 00:25:31.839 --> 00:25:44.240 Yeah we spent a lot of time uh and thought on our advertisers when we were designing the mobile side because we wanted to make sure that they were well included in the mobile as they were at the desktop. 00:25:44.559 --> 00:26:00.079 And as mentioned you guys have gone through so many f new features there and there's still we could sit here and take up way more time of to going through a a laundry list of the new things that are on the new styleesearch.com website. 00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:21.039 Leanne I'm gonna go with you first you know like I said you could you're probably as as anybody in the entire world of being able to spout out all the things that are new on the website you're the person I would ask you to narrow it down to maybe a few what are some of the things that really excite you about this new website? 00:26:21.519 --> 00:26:39.519 Well the fact that our qualifiers I think our qualifiers are one of our most utilized pages and our qualifiers are are very easily accessible now and not only that but they're archived and you can search for them. 00:26:39.680 --> 00:27:07.839 So you can search through our archive there's a search tab at the top you can search for any qualifier any race result you put in the name of a horse our website's going to be completely searchable which that's a really good new feature that we have is that you can search

through all these things because people may not remember the name of a horse or they may not remember partial name or they don't know what race that horse ran in or the full name of the race. 00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:11.440 So you can or they just may not even know where it exists on our site. 00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:17.200 So they they can go into the search feature and search for it and it'll take them to the qualifiers list. 00:27:17.359 --> 00:27:20.000 It'll take them to that quick stake list. 00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:36.400 An another great thing about the qualifiers list that's new that we've added is you can now see the trial number and where the horse finished in the trial that wasn't on our old site of that feature. 00:27:36.960 --> 00:28:03.440 Along with the cell information that we have for uh if the horse you know sold uh as a yearling in the cell it gives the cell and how much he bought in the cell those those sale prices are also on the quick stakes results uh so not only on the qualifier races but any first second and third place horse that place um also has the sell results on our quick stakes. 00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:15.359 And another thing about our quick stakes I don't think I don't I didn't know this existed when I started we have the quick stakes tab but we also have the weekly results. 00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:26.079 So it has allowance maiden trials every horse that's won in in the industry for that whole week you can go and look them up. 00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:36.480 So that's another feature that I think is going to be more prominent not that it's brand new but it's going to be more prominent and people will be able to recognize it more uh especially on mobile. 00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:50.160 Well speaking of the wake weekly race results something that I think people love because we're always excited about the two year olds in the spring and you want to see the maiden winners well when you go to that maiden tab those races are in order by sire. 00:28:50.480 --> 00:28:59.440 So you can literally just scroll down the list and you can see you know a political jest how many maiden winners he had that week and what track they were at. 00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:05.920 So but it's in alphabetical order by the stallions and you can see every maiden winner that was in the last seven days. 00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:12.559 I'll tell you another really uh uh a new feature that's really awesome is videos. 00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:18.319 Um multiple different types of videos that we have but videos on every single race. 00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:40.480 Uh we used to only be able to show three or five I think at a time and then we went up to ten in the last year but now every single stakes story that we write which is every single one of them will have a race replay video as long as Robert's communications is at that track. 00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:47.200 So if they're at that track recording that video we've got it on our site every single one of them and

they're gonna stay there. 00:29:47.359 --> 00:29:53.359 They used to before they would go away once the next stakes race came up so they're gonna be there forever. 00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:59.599 We're gonna have those videos on the site forever and that's a really big feature that I'm excited about. 00:29:59.920 --> 00:30:14.480 David if I could have a nickel for every time I've received a call in the last 16 years of hey there was a story that was done on my horse two years ago and I there was a a video attached to it how can I find that this feature is awesome. 00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:21.039 This this will eliminate a lot of like where is it type stuff or I can't find it I can't see it. 00:30:21.119 --> 00:30:28.480 So that the without a doubt Leanne that's one of the top features of being able to have like a a house for all of this to live. 00:30:28.880 --> 00:30:44.319 Yeah and speaking of videos all the videos that you and over the years um they've always kind of lived on our site but they haven't been organized properly or they haven't been organized in a a searchable way. 00:30:44.640 --> 00:30:50.240 And so now all of our videos I mean we have we have I didn't know we had this many videos. 00:30:50.640 --> 00:30:53.599 Now you can go look at them by organization. 00:30:53.759 --> 00:31:06.079 They're major stakes cell videos challenge race videos digital shorts fire profiles all the cool things that we do are now very organized and searchable. 00:31:06.319 --> 00:31:13.759 I've forgotten how many we had Leanne that's how many we have all of Greg's work for the last 15 years. 00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:38.880 And we'll be right back after these words Uncle Diding third crop sire in the country not only a grade one winner but a grade one producer giving you

actually educating us how to maneuver this brand new website and maybe some of the events that are coming up that we're going to be accessible to for anybody that wants to come up and and either talk to us about the new website or actually ask us how to do something. 00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:23.759 Okay we're we're planning to have a kind of a special rollout during the Heritage Place here Linksville Nokoma City we're gonna be there for all four days uh where people can come up to our office and we'll help them download an app uh on their phone. 00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:35.039 We're gonna

to answer any questions. 00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:13.679 There's a lot that's gone into this website and a lot of blood, sweat and tears so we're we're excited to tell everybody about it. 00:34:14.480 --> 00:34:30.639 Okay one of the things I think that we can safely say is one of our greatest traits at Sign ESearch is our ability to adapt to the industry and we've shown it over the years David and and Leanne coming on board is is really just absolutely supercharged it. 00:34:31.280 --> 00:34:41.920 Uh moving into the future now that we're rolling out what we think is our absolutely without a doubt the industry leading website out there and mobile site. 00:34:42.719 --> 00:34:44.480 Now what do we do with it? 00:34:44.639 --> 00:34:54.320 Where where are we expanding into the future and and what is it something that's that's different from say like what we would have done five years ago until as compared to what we are doing today. 00:34:54.960 --> 00:35:45.360 That you know with the way that our industry is changing so much we have not only we have a lot of new races going on we ha everybody is trying to do the new and expanded most innovative idea and social media has become such a big huge part of everyday life uh you know I have studied uh the the different countries and who uses what you know in this country in the United States in in the horse racing industry and that's only this horse racing industry I would still venture to say that Facebook is probably the most pronounced TikTok obviously for short run videos where but people still go to Facebook for their informational stuff because you can supply

so much more information. 00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:52.960 Instagram is also uh becoming somewhat prominent but Instagram is huge in Brazil. 00:35:53.039 --> 00:36:02.079 So most of our Brazilian clients um look at the Instagram accounts like our Instagram shows more Brazil than any other country. 00:36:02.400 --> 00:36:20.000 Our biggest goal after launching the website I in my opinion is to coincide what we have with our social media accounts and start building those to get bigger and more prominent so that we have the best product out there. 00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:39.519 And it's a work in progress you know we're a very small group of people like Christine search and it takes a an incredible amount of time to put all that effort into social media but we're working on it and I think that's where we can get a lot better and where we have gotten a lot better and where we will continue to get better. 00:36:39.920 --> 00:36:54.000 Leanne can you talk a little bit about you know I I had a weekly newsletter that um I've probably had for 20 years along with the site and it was mainly I started just to get people to you know uh come to the site. 00:36:54.239 --> 00:36:58.079 Leanne has taken that over since she came on board and expanded it. 00:36:58.320 --> 00:37:07.440 So can you tell us a little bit about that because we now uh have uh Stalin email blast a lot more to offer there. 00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:58.480 Yeah uh well adding another person to start research um obviously added more hands on deck so we were able to um expand our services so I took the newsletter that David has already put together and just you know ramped it up you can get to basically every section of our site from that weekly newsletter and we give you the highlights of what if what's gone on in the industry if there's major stakes there's videos qualifiers the calendar all the good sales report sales results catalogs all that stuff that you can get on our site in our newsletter we will send it out to you weekly so that you're up to date and so you just go up to the top of our site you hit subscribe we'll send it to you. 00:37:58.719 --> 00:38:14.960 We also offer email blast which a lot of the stallion owners have taken advantage of because not only do they get you know an ad that's emailed out to all of our subscribers but they also get a story in the breeding section. 00:38:15.039 --> 00:38:27.840 So our breeding section has grown tremendously because we're you know we're writing about all of these stallions in the industry and giving them all a a lot of extra coverage and then all of that stuff also goes out on social media. 00:38:28.079 --> 00:38:35.280 So everything that we're trying to accomplish on stallion research is getting pushed out to all these different platforms. 00:38:35.519 --> 00:38:51.440 The qualifiers the big one uh whenever we have whenever the fastest qualifiers go out that gets pushed to social media immediately and that's where we're getting a lot of our

traffic coming from because people love those qualifiers and they come in and they visit and they see what else we have going on. 00:38:51.840 --> 00:39:16.320 16 years ago uh we didn't have a the pop-up banner we didn't have the email blast we didn't have the podcast that we're talking on the social media so one of the things that we have done I think we've answered the bell every time something comes our way of just the expansion that that of how to be able to promote your stallion or how to promote quarter horse racing I think we've been at the forefront. 00:39:16.480 --> 00:39:37.440 I think we've if there is an award for who's kind of rolled with the times and and and been an innovative in the industry I think we are definitely at I don't I don't have any qualms of of comparing notes with anybody that questions that but I I'm I'm excited about seeing what it actually has to to behold. 00:39:37.519 --> 00:40:02.400 If you know I know Leanne and I joke about well that only means we got an extra job to do once we figure it out and then actually put it put it into place but it's it's truly that we're we we always had you the viewer in mind of when we were going to put this out we were always took the standpoint of what were they going to see and what did they want to see and I think we've hit the mark. 00:40:02.639 --> 00:40:36.960 Well I mean I have to say something I've worked in this quarter horse racing industry for a long most of my well all of my adult life and you know I always take my job seriously I always want to contribute the most and the best I can to any company I've ever worked for and I have had the most freedom to be innovative and forward thinking in this company and that's what I pride myself and pride study and research on is that we're constantly trying to be forward thinking. 00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:46.400 You know I don't know if a lot of people probably don't even remember uh Study and eSearch actually started out as an online stallion registry. 00:40:46.480 --> 00:41:28.960 There wasn't any news qualifiers race nothing it was just an online stallion registry where the stallion information got updated weekly and uh from that you know I started putting a little news out there and then I started putting qualifiers and it just grew into what it is today and you know I never envisioned that uh you know what we're uh what we've launched this week it's it's beyond what I ever dreamed of originally hence the name Stallion ESearch it it was just going to be an online side gig for me to you know have a Stallion Register so uh I'm just really excited for everybody to start using the new side. 00:41:29.280 --> 00:41:45.440 Well when David hired me I was hired on to be his assistant side gig and then we turned that into Me U and and Greg turned into a whole lot more than just the sidekick. 00:41:47.039 --> 00:43:00.159 For sure exactly well guys I'm so glad that we hit the finish line here with of kicking this website out for the uh quarter horse racing world to to enjoy and to learn and of course to expand what they were able to see and and I've had plenty of people in the industry that were say a jockey that was that uh ended his career 20 years ago that said that it would have been a whole lot different in his career of maybe even the enjoyment if he could actually go online and or or go anywhere and read about a win that just happened like a couple hours ago the way that we're we've been able to produce for 21 years now and so and one other thing I will say guys is we've crossed this finish line and we a didn't kill each other as far as I know none of us are talking from the insane asylum and and uh so guys though we all need the math but we all need to catch up on some sleep but guys thanks for coming on and talking with the viewers here or here on Stalin Search about our new exciting website that we launched on Tuesday. 00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:22.159 And uh with absolutely we look forward to seeing you guys at Heritage Place and talking with you the the Stalini Search junkies that are out there and hopefully I don't I'll go ahead and say it I hope we create some more junkies especially some of these guys that didn't realize all of this information actually is out there at their fingertips waiting for them. 00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:26.159 Thanks for having us we appreciate it. 00:43:26.639 --> 00:43:59.760 And we'll be right back after these words October 17th is the 822 championship finals the downs at Albuquerque and also in the news the 2027 822 challenge championships will be at Longstar Park in Grand Prairie Texas so you can either go onto the 822 website and look at all the challenge information or you can find it in the challenge textbooks on stallionfesearch.com did you know four of ten All American Future qualifiers this year or we those still select your 00:44:00.320 --> 00:44:00.719 Graduates?

yearlings consigned by them, you should consider it. 00:51:32.159 -->

00:51:34.800 The name Lazy E Ranch is a difference maker. 00:51:34.960 --> 00:51:35.760 Plain and simple. 00:51:36.000 --> 00:51:47.760 If you are buying at upcoming yearling sales, you need to know that there is no one that compares to Lazy E with the long history of selling champions and grade one winners that have all been consigned by Lazy E Ranch. 00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:55.440 And not to mention, they field the stoutest and the most eye-catching roster of stallions in the quarter horse racing industry. 00:51:55.679 --> 00:51:57.679 Here's a tip for success this summer. 00:51:57.920 --> 00:52:08.800 First off, go to lazyeranch.com to see all the available information, from pictures to videos of the summer yearlings that Lazy E Ranch has to offer at the various upcoming sales. 00:52:09.039 --> 00:52:12.639 And while they're online, take a look at that stallion roster. 00:52:12.800 --> 00:52:13.840 It's impressive. 00:52:14.079 --> 00:52:18.880 Or you can also view all of their running stallions at stallionesearch.com. 00:52:19.039 --> 00:52:22.880 The name that means success in the racing industry is Lazy E. 00:52:23.679 --> 00:52:26.719 What your horse eats determines how good they will become. 00:52:26.880 --> 00:52:31.599 That's why every day, more horses eat Purina horse feeds than any other brand on the market. 00:52:31.840 --> 00:52:36.960 So, no matter what your needs, there's a Purina feed created to provide optimal nutrition for your horse. 00:52:37.280 --> 00:52:37.920 Purina. 00:52:38.079 --> 00:52:41.360 Horses make better people, and we make better horses. 00:52:41.679 --> 00:52:43.599 Alright, back to the show. 00:52:43.840 --> 00:52:51.119 All right, we're back here in the preview section here in Quarter Horse Racing Talk Weekly, and always happy to have Yancy Guiman joining me. 00:52:51.199 --> 00:53:01.039 Yancey, we've got a lot of nice races, including definitely a grade one out there in California that we're going to get to, and plenty of other races across the country to talk about. 00:53:01.119 --> 00:53:03.199 But let's go ahead and go out west. 00:53:03.360 --> 00:53:05.760 And they got two big races out there. 00:53:05.920 --> 00:53:06.639 Of course, the Sgt. 00:53:06.880 --> 00:53:10.000 Pepper feature handicap is always a great race. 00:53:10.159 --> 00:53:13.679 The grade one go-man-go handicap is on tap as well. 00:53:13.840 --> 00:53:16.000 But let's go ahead and look at the Sgt. 00:53:16.239 --> 00:53:23.519 Pepper feature handicap for three-year-olds going 350 yards for a$30,000 price tag here. 00:53:23.599 --> 00:53:34.159 And there's a horse that's crossed nominated in the Sergeant Pepper as well as in the Go Man Go, and that's one of the top runners, Mayor Humdinger, out of the barn of Mike Castleman. 00:53:34.400 --> 00:53:41.760 Yeah, this horse, if you go back to his two-year-old year, he really has turned it on since the Governor's Cup fraternity last year. 00:53:41.920 --> 00:53:53.039 He won that and then comes back as a three-year-old, wins a nice allowance, then ran second in the Governor's Cup Derby trial, and then he also ran second in the Governor's Cup final. 00:53:53.519 --> 00:53:58.960 But this horse, his whole career, he's had seven starts, four wins, two seconds, all at Los Al. 00:53:59.199 --> 00:54:02.480 So he definitely is a nice runner out of the Mike Castleman barn. 00:54:02.800 --> 00:54:08.639 You'd throw out the very first opening debut race there on May 31st in 2025. 00:54:08.800 --> 00:54:10.960 Throw that race out where he finished seventh. 00:54:11.119 --> 00:54:13.280 Other than that, this horse has been spot on. 00:54:13.440 --> 00:54:30.400 As a matter of fact, the last race, the Governors' Cup Derby, a restricted grade two event, just barely missed and lost by a nose, or else we would be talking about the possibility of this horse being one of the top horses in the country at this point in time, but certainly one of the top three-year-olds in the country. 00:54:30.480 --> 00:54:39.840 And I would almost assume, especially since he's he's going to face the same horses in his age group as three-year-olds going in here in the Sergeant Pepper Feature. 00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:42.320 I almost assume that's where Mike Castleman will go. 00:54:42.400 --> 00:54:46.159 But of course, and we wouldn't know that until, of course, they they enter. 00:54:46.239 --> 00:54:48.800 And when do they enter for the Sergeant Pepper Feature Urancy? 00:54:49.119 --> 00:54:51.199 Tomorrow, Wednesday, August 19th. 00:54:51.760 --> 00:54:52.639 August 19th. 00:54:52.719 --> 00:54:58.079 We'll be able to see who's going in that nice slated race there at Los Alamitas. 00:54:58.239 --> 00:55:01.599 And that leads us over to the grade one go man-go handicap. 00:55:01.760 --> 00:55:06.800 Of course, a lot of great horses have gone down the racetrack and won there in a grade one event. 00:55:07.039 --> 00:55:08.719 Of course, it was in the go-man-go. 00:55:09.360 --> 00:55:15.519 And Stellar Field, I mean, certainly waiting to see how the entries go on this one. 00:55:15.679 --> 00:55:22.480 Not too terribly long ago, they had the Los Alamitas Bank of America Challenge Regional Championship there. 00:55:23.360 --> 00:55:26.639 As an example, Scoops Dynasty ran in that. 00:55:26.960 --> 00:55:34.559 Whether he's going to be wheeled back into the Go Man Go, it's it remains to be seen, and the only way we'll know that is on entry day. 00:55:34.639 --> 00:55:38.639 But uh certainly one of the horses that jumps out at me is Lethal Cowboy 123. 00:55:39.039 --> 00:55:42.159 Yeah, I mean, this horse is loves Los Alamitos. 00:55:42.400 --> 00:55:47.199 If he's always been a super nice horse, but it seems like Los Alamitos is definitely his home. 00:55:47.280 --> 00:55:54.480 He just won the Vessels Maturity last time out, where he beat Cattail Cove, which is another nominee for this race. 00:55:54.719 --> 00:56:08.000 But I mean, if you go back his

two-year-old and three-year-old year, he he won the Los Al two million as a two-year-old, took fourth in the Los Alpherby as a three-year-old, ran second in the Brad McKinsey winner championship. 00:56:08.159 --> 00:56:14.639 I mean, this is just a super nice horse, and he looks like definitely the horse to beat out of the Mark Younger's bone. 00:56:15.039 --> 00:56:38.400 Well, let's talk about Cattel Cove, another horse that's just been knocking on the door, uh, won the Kawaii Bar handicap in April earlier in this year, then comes back and run a great race in the vessel's maturity to get up and finish second, and then of course goes into the Spencer Childers, which is a restricted grade one event, and just barely misses by a half a length, was third in that race. 00:56:38.559 --> 00:56:47.760 And this horse, I would say he's in great form, and certainly he is going to have to be on his game to run with Lethal Cowboy 1-2-3. 00:56:48.000 --> 00:56:56.559 But, you know, I certainly wouldn't be absolutely shocked if there's some other horse in the headlines other than Lethal Cowboy 1-2-3 at the end of this race. 00:56:56.800 --> 00:57:00.480 Yeah, and I mean I think it's worth mentioning Juan Alman barn is on fire. 00:57:00.719 --> 00:57:05.760 Last week they had three challenge races at Los Alminos, and Juan Alman won all of them. 00:57:06.000 --> 00:57:12.159 And I mean, Catdale Cove, he might not always win every stakes race, but man, he's always there. 00:57:12.239 --> 00:57:15.280 Like this is the veteran of racing almost. 00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:21.440 Like he's had 61 starts, and he's always super tough, even though he doesn't always win. 00:57:21.760 --> 00:57:23.679 Two other horses to look at in this race. 00:57:23.840 --> 00:57:32.559 Of course, Scoops Dynasty, which we mentioned, challenge regional event there, just barely lost by a neck to Bold and Beautiful. 00:57:32.800 --> 00:57:34.559 Now it was ran on August the first. 00:57:34.960 --> 00:57:37.519 This race will go off this coming weekend. 00:57:37.599 --> 00:57:40.559 So there's 20-something days there to deal with. 00:57:40.800 --> 00:57:47.039 Will trainer Diego Cervantes wheel his horse back and put him in the grade one go man go? 00:57:47.119 --> 00:57:49.920 But if he does, his horse is always live, Yancey. 00:57:50.159 --> 00:57:55.440 Yeah, Scoop's Dynasty looked like he was kind of back into his normal form last time out. 00:57:55.599 --> 00:57:58.719 And like you said, for the last couple years, he's always there. 00:57:58.880 --> 00:58:04.800 He's won big races all over the country, so you can't count him out if he's in the race and he's on his game. 00:58:05.119 --> 00:58:07.440 And I also think we need to talk about winner's share. 00:58:07.519 --> 00:58:19.039 Out of the Barnum, Valentin Zamudio ran a really great race in the Spencer Childers last time out, just barely beaten by a neck in that spot, and of course, gets back in this race. 00:58:19.119 --> 00:58:20.719

It's it had plenty of time off. 00:58:20.880 --> 00:58:23.840 July 26th is when it ran there in the Spencer Childers. 00:58:24.159 --> 00:58:29.119 So should be keen to be entered into this race and should be very live in this spot. 00:58:29.360 --> 00:58:32.639 Yeah, I mean he's like it's kind of a consistent thing. 00:58:32.719 --> 00:58:36.079 He's another horse that he's super tough in stakes races. 00:58:36.159 --> 00:58:38.719 I mean, he's second in the choir bars. 00:58:38.800 --> 00:58:43.039 Uh didn't run too good in the independence, but comes right back, like you said, in the Spencer Childs. 00:58:43.119 --> 00:58:53.199 So he's another horse that's if he's on his game, he's gonna be there for years, has always had super tough runners, especially in the California division out there. 00:58:53.440 --> 00:59:04.239 And also it is worth mentioning in the choir bar was just right behind beaten by a nose by Catel Cove, who we've already talked about, should be super live in this spot as well. 00:59:04.400 --> 00:59:12.719 So two great stakes races out there on the West Coast at Los Alamitas, and we'll go out to Texas to Rotama Park on August 21st. 00:59:12.880 --> 00:59:16.639 The AQHA Racing Challenge stakes there. 00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:24.800 Of course, you win and you're in there in the finals at Albuquerque, and we got another great solid field of older runners here. 00:59:25.119 --> 00:59:35.599 Yes, uh it is a super tough field, but I think there's an a standout and obvious choice in the race if he runs his race, and that's the eight shaker's no secret. 00:59:35.760 --> 00:59:39.760 Uh last time out he won the King William stake at Ratama. 00:59:40.239 --> 00:59:49.360 But if you go back over the last three years, all this horse has d is win, place win or place or be on the board in stakes races all over the country. 00:59:49.519 --> 00:59:53.199 It doesn't matter where they send this horse, it doesn't matter where he runs. 00:59:53.440 --> 01:00:02.079 Every once in a while he'll throw a an off race, but 90% of the time this horse is either winning or on the board in graded stakes races. 01:00:02.159 --> 01:00:06.000 And he's made$864,000 out already. 01:00:06.079 --> 01:00:11.679 And I think if Shaker's North Seek gets on his game on the outside, it's gonna be super tough to beat him. 01:00:11.840 --> 01:00:24.880 Another horse out of the Mark Younger's barn is Eagles Up, Louisiana Bred, comes from Evangeline, runs over here and runs, doesn't run a great race last time out in allowance company as a almost like a prep this year. 01:00:25.119 --> 01:00:33.119 But if you look back at this horse's past performance and go back a couple races back, this is a third place finisher in the Evangeline Downs Derby. 01:00:33.199 --> 01:00:35.920 He's the winner of the TQHA Sires Cup Derby. 01:00:36.000 --> 01:00:40.239 He's a finalist finishing third in the Sam Houston Derby as a great three. 01:00:40.320 --> 01:00:46.800 And even go back even

further into his two-year-old year, he's a second place finisher in the Evangeline Downs futurity. 01:00:46.960 --> 01:00:50.400 So this horse is pretty consistent in stakes company. 01:00:50.800 --> 01:00:54.719 And will this horse bounce back as a four-year-old going into this spot? 01:00:54.880 --> 01:00:58.639 Mark Younger's, of course, is pointing him towards one of his stablemates. 01:00:58.800 --> 01:01:05.599 I would say Eagles up has to be on his top of his game in order to be able to hold up with his stablemate on the outside. 01:01:05.840 --> 01:01:11.840 Yeah, I put it very well easily could be a Mark Younger's one, two, three in in this race. 01:01:12.000 --> 01:01:15.519 But I think one more we have to mention in this race is Dr. 01:01:15.679 --> 01:01:17.679 Pepper 1-2-3, the two. 01:01:18.000 --> 01:01:25.599 Um he's only had one start this year, which he was a second allowance, but it makes me think this was kind of a prep for this race. 01:01:25.840 --> 01:01:30.320 But and as a three-year-old, this horse ran third in the Rotoma Park Derby. 01:01:30.480 --> 01:01:32.639 He won the Sam Houston fraternity. 01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:42.719 He also qualified to the Texas Classic Derby, so he was a super nice three-year-old, and I know it's only a second allowance, but like I said, it makes me think this is a prep. 01:01:42.800 --> 01:01:48.079 So I think he's another tough horse that the younger stable will have to outrun in this race. 01:01:48.320 --> 01:02:00.320 And we'll stay at Ratama Park and we'll look at the Sires Cup fraturity, a restricted grade two event,$230,000 on the line for two-year-olds going 350 yards. 01:02:00.480 --> 01:02:05.760 An obvious horse is the two to one morning line favorite on the rail there, Roosman Crystal. 01:02:06.000 --> 01:02:09.280 Yeah, this horse comes out of the Jose Garcia Barn. 01:02:09.360 --> 01:02:11.599 Victor Yarrieta will be riding. 01:02:11.679 --> 01:02:16.159 She is a KJ Mucho Macho Man Philly, and she daylighted the field. 01:02:16.239 --> 01:02:19.760 When I went back and watched the trials, I mean it was definitely the easiest trial win. 01:02:19.920 --> 01:02:23.679 Um she ran third in the Oklahoma fraternity earlier this year. 01:02:23.840 --> 01:02:26.000 Um looks like she comes right back to form. 01:02:26.079 --> 01:02:34.159 Um Victor Yarrieta qualified multiple runners into this race, and he likes to stay on her, so she's gonna be super tough to beat. 01:02:34.480 --> 01:02:44.159 As well as being a third place finisher in the grade two Oklahoma Fraternity earlier in the year in March, there at Remington Park, this horse is certainly the standout in this field. 01:02:44.480 --> 01:02:59.039 Another really nice horse to talk about, though, is if Mark Younger's does good in all these races, it could be a Mark Younger's weekend, because he has a really nice horse in this race, too, which is the seven, Corona's first cowboy, out of Corona's first diva. 01:02:59.119 --> 01:03:01.599 So this horse is bred out of this world. 01:03:01.760 --> 01:03:04.639 But he's had seven starts, five wins on the year. 01:03:04.880 --> 01:03:06.880 All five wins have came in trials. 01:03:07.280 --> 01:03:13.760 Uh he's made the finals of two fraternities already, fourth in the Sam Houston fraternity, and fifth in the Texas Breeders. 01:03:13.840 --> 01:03:18.079 And one thing I put that I liked about him in the trials is he didn't break really good at all. 01:03:18.239 --> 01:03:21.280 He got bumped by the two, but he really finished strong. 01:03:21.360 --> 01:03:29.280 So I think if this horse is on his game, he's proven that he can qualify for big fraternities, he just needs to put it all together to win one. 01:03:29.679 --> 01:03:31.679 And that leads us up to Canterbury. 01:03:31.760 --> 01:03:47.199 We're going to look at the two-year-olds going forth in the Northlands fraternity, fifty-nine thousand dollar fraternity for two-year-olds going 350 yards, and another Jason Olmsted runner here, headlines the field as a five to two favorite. 01:03:47.360 --> 01:03:51.679 She's a sugar mama with his son Ryder Olmsted in the Irons. 01:03:52.000 --> 01:04:09.679 Yeah, this horse is um won two fraternities at Canterbury already this year, and comes back and she actually ran third in the trials to to get into this race behind another Olmsted runner, but I think this horse is the top horse if she's on her game. 01:04:09.760 --> 01:04:12.400 But I put just give me a Jason Olmstead runner. 01:04:12.800 --> 01:04:16.079 It's worth mentioning he has seven out of the ten runners. 01:04:16.239 --> 01:04:33.199 And I don't care what fraternity it is, no matter if you're in a grade one fraternity at Riadosa, or if you're in a fraternity, a small fraternity somewhere else, or if you're in the Northlands fraternity at Canterbury, qualifying seven out of ten is a huge feat, no matter where you are. 01:04:33.599 --> 01:04:35.599 And one of those runners is the two-to-one. 01:04:36.000 --> 01:04:46.000 I actually got it wrong, the two to one favorite on the morning line is why so political an Oklahoma bred Philly by a political jest out of the first down dash mare. 01:04:46.320 --> 01:04:46.639 Why? 01:04:46.800 --> 01:04:58.960 Now, this horse, of course, qualified and got into the Prairie Medals gold juvenile stakes, but ran lights out in the trials to get over here and become the two-to-one favorite going into the finals here. 01:04:59.119 --> 01:05:06.400 And that's just one of the, like we mentioned, seven runners that Jason Olmsted put into the finals here in the Northland Futurity. 01:05:06.559 --> 01:05:09.199 And as always, thanks for joining us here, Yancey. 01:05:09.280 --> 01:05:14.400 Another great preview, and we'll be back after these words here on Quota Horse Racing Talk Weekly. 01:05:14.880 --> 01:05:18.239 Yes, we've launched the new stallionesearch.com site. 01:05:18.480 --> 01:05:20.079 Yes, it's mobile friendly. 01:05:20.239 --> 01:05:31.360 Yes, there are short clips of how to navigate videos on the site, and yes, we are committed to continue our role at the top when it comes to delivering the news, delivering the stats, and delivering the fun. 01:05:31.679 --> 01:05:33.199 Stallionesearch.com. 01:05:33.599 --> 01:05:38.320 See you at Heritage Place for those who want to take a deep dive on just how awesome this site has become. 01:05:38.719 --> 01:05:42.239 Alright, that's all the time we have here for Quarter Horse Racing Talk Weekly. 01:05:42.320 --> 01:05:45.280 Yes, it's been a great, big, gigantic week. 01:05:45.519 --> 01:05:46.960 We did launch, of course. 01:05:47.119 --> 01:06:02.719 Everything's going as smoothly as we possibly can make it on a brand new website getting out there, and certainly love to hear some of the feedback from some of the people that I know are Stallion ESearch junkies that go on to the site multiple times on a daily basis. 01:06:02.960 --> 01:06:09.679 And as always, we are committed and will keep enjoying bringing it to you here on Quarter Horse Racing Talk Weekly. 01:06:09.760 --> 01:06:13.119 And we'll see you next week here on stallioneseearch.com.
