S7E26: Last Kentucky Derby prep, Apple Blossom & the eclipse
About this episode
The Grade 1, $1.25 million Apple Blossom Handicap at Oaklawn and the last Kentucky Derby 2024 points prep at Keeneland are the focus of this week's Ron Flatter Racing Pod.
Track announcer Matt Dinerman will offer his insight on Saturday's Apple Blossom as well as his first season calling races in Arkansas and his new assignment this summer as the voice of Monmouth Park.
Trainer Joe Orseno, who won the Preakness with Red Bullet in 2000, may be on the verge of a return to the Triple Crown series with Hades, who races Saturday in the Lexington Stakes (G3).
Horse Racing Nation's Ed DeRosa handicaps graded stakes at Oaklawn and Keeneland, a 2007 racetrack interview with the late O.J. Simpson is replayed, and Ron will be joined by John Cherwa to sample feedback from listeners and readers.
The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Firefox, iHeart and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com. This week's episode is sponsored by Xpressbet.
