Could this be the year that horse trainer and Mechanicville native Chad Brown capture the elusive Kentucky Derby crown? Out of eighteen horses in the field he has two and one is the odds-on favorite.

Buffalo Bills GM Brandon Beane and QB Josh Allen attended this country concert.

If you want to attend the 2024 Belmont Stakes at Saratoga Race Course, you need to know about these two big changes.

The Preakness Stakes is not until May 21st, but there is no way Kentucky Derby winner Rich Strike is going to win. I am still shocked he won the Derby.

He is one of the most successful horse trainers in the game and happens to be from my hometown. It's a given that we will all be rooting for him on Saturday in the Kentucky Derby.

It's the only partnership like this so far in the state and representatives are hoping the perfect timing of it will kick it off as a success.
