👋 👋🏼👋🏽👋🏾 Helloooooo PENNSYLVANIA! Spotted on the backside this morning, NIXON JOY running in Saturday's Iron Horse ( 1 1/16 mile) for owner Maria Alejandra Marquez and cared for/ridden by Maria's husband, retired jockey and Jamie Ness rider, Pedro Requena. The horse represents Parx Racing and Pennsylvania Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association - PTHA well, don't you think? Welcome to Kentucky and best of luck!!
ARKANSAS IN THE HOUSE! “The Claiming Crown is a fantastic venue for these horses from around the country to compete on a national stage and we’re proud to have a Ron Moquett-trained and Oaklawn-based horse represented here,” says 🌟EXPECT THE BEST🌟 co-owner Chris Monroe. 🚨 Just a heads up if you are attending Claiming Crown and you hear the 🐗 Arkansas Razorbacks Hog Call coming from the stands during The Jewel, it is likely emanating from the ownership group of the 4yo Khozan gelding with Rafael Bejarano aboard!Referred to by Ron as “the Arkansas Group,” this tight-knit partnership of five hails from Texas, Montana, Louisiana and Arkansas. But it’s their college connection that keeps them bonded. Out of the five partners, four (and their wives) attended the University of Arkansas. Extending the fun to the next generation, the group collectively has 7 sons, ALSO Arkansas alumni! 🤜As for the Claiming Crown, Monroe says “The group is flattered to be included. Acquiring horses by claim is similar to colleges athletes in the transfer portal and it’s a blast to see them run back with have success with a new trainer.”Best of luck to you all and thanks for sharing your story!
