What was to have been the $1-million Rebel Stakes with 85 Kentucky Derby points up for grabs is now a pair of $750,000 Rebel Stakes worth 63.75 each, including 37.5 to the winners. And the extra race, money, and points attracted some extra good horses, including a pair of undefeated two-year-olds from Racing Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert making their three-year-old debuts: champion Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner Game Winner and Grade 1 winner Improbable. Baffert has won 6 of the past 9 Rebel Stakes, including the 2015 edition with eventual Triple Crown champion Horse of the Year American Pharoah. James Scully of Brisnet.com joins Ed DeRosa of the BetAmerica.com Radio Network to discuss wagering on both divisions of the Rebel. Can Baffert be opposed? Which is his more likely winner?

It’s not always easy to spot the path you’re meant to take, even when it’s laid out, right in front of you. Sometimes, you just can’t see it… and yet, your instincts tell you it’s there. So when you’re provided with a shot to give it a try, you somehow know to take it. And, once taken, it’s abundantly clear that you’re exactly where you’re meant to be. This is the path Donna Barton Brothers took to become one of the most successful female jockeys of all time.   The daughter of one of the US’s first licensed female jockeys who, to this day, is revered as a living legend. The sister of two successful jockeys in their own right. Married to a top trainer. And herself still numbered among the most successful female jockeys of all time, Donna not only recognizes the role Thoroughbred racing has played throughout her life – she is extraordinarily grateful for the people, the industry, and for the horses, themselves.    These days, as Donna says, she has the best job on Earth – reporting for ESPN, NBC Sports, and TVG Network, the victories, as well as the heartbreaks, and the behind-the-barn stories of the very people she’s called family, friends, and colleagues throughout her life. And she does it with the same intensity and determination – and, now, terrific joy – that she once burst from the starting gates on the back of a sleek Thoroughbred.     Topic of Discussion: [1:49] When racing became Donna’s passion.

[35:37] The horses that stand out in Donna’s memory and the rapport jockeys need to build with each individual horse. [39:57] Donna’s funny but touching story about a horse she rode, Trick Artist.

Despite his humble roots, Mike Repole's goals have always been lofty, and to his credit, he's achieved many of them. The kid from Queens who was the first person in his family to attend college turned a small beverage company into a $4 billion giant. He dreamed of owning racehorses as a teenager, and he's made that come true as well, winning top-class races like the Breeders' Cup Juvenile and the Travers Stakes. In this edition of Around the Track, we hear the story of how Repole made it big as an entrepreneur, his thoughts on horse ownership and the racing game, and stories like whatever happened to that Travers canoe?
