“Thoroughbred News,” “Racing Preview,” and “Racing Recap” E-Newsletters to provide subscribers with up-to-the-minute news and information in their Email Inbox.

LEXINGTON, KY – Keeping up the latest news and information about Thoroughbred racing will become much easier beginning today, as The Blood-Horse, the premier weekly publication in the industry, launches the first of three comprehensive, easy-to-read e-newsletters: Thoroughbred News. Two additional racing-related e-newsletters will follow soon thereafter, Racing Preview and Racing Recap, which will debut on Friday, Dec. 29, and Tuesday, Jan. 1, respectively. Thoroughbred News, which will be delivered each Wednesday, will include the top stories of the week—racing, auctions, breeding, and industry—gleaned from the Bloodhorse.com Web site, the Thoroughbred industry’s leading online source for racing and breeding information. Readers who subscribe to this e-newsletter will be able to stay on top of the week’s most significant headlines. The Racing Preview e-newsletter will be delivered each Friday and will look ahead to the major races each weekend from around the world, featuring articles from Bloodhorse.com along with official racing entries from Equibase. Racing Recap, delivered on Monday mornings, will feature the results of the major races each weekend from around the world, with descriptive and informative articles and official charts. Readers may subscribe at absolutely no cost to one or all three e-newsletters by visiting http://www.bloodhorse.com/enewsletters.

These timely and informative e-newsletters nicely complement our recently launched RSS service and our readers are the true beneficiaries.”
