We couldn't believe what you're about to read, either. We stumbled (amazingly, while quite sober, too) across this psychadelic gonzo gem on the website KentuckyDerby.info. Behold this journalistic pearl from the one and only...
Imagine Ryan Howard hitting 50 home runs for 10 years straight. Or Ben Roethlisberger passing for over 4,000 yards every year for a decade (and winning The Super Bowl nearly every year). Or how about Roy Halliday pitching 10...
It's hard to tell Union Rags' story because it sounds like you're making it up, or at least laying it on a bit thick. I mean, he's still the early favorite for the Kentucky Derby, does he also need to have an unlikely birth...
Some call horse racing the most exciting 2 minutes in sports. But attention spans seem to be shrinking, don't you know. (Note the brevity of this blog post.) So how about betting on an extremely exciting 17 seconds or so? That's...
So often we refer to the world of horse racing as an “industry.” Granted, its economic and commercial qualities are industrial by definition, but is this label a hindrance to the growth of the sport? We recently stumbled...
On Monday, the intrepid TrackPackPA crew took a trip up to Harrisburg to visit the Standardbred sales. After devouring some delicious burgers at Jackson House, we headed over to the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex- a site to see...

We headed down to the Meadows and snapped off some great pics of the Pennsylvania Fair Finals! Great times and Great races all around! All photos by the great, Ryan Zidek...
The Daily Racing Form is the bible of all horse racing stats and legends. It's the paper that our uncles and grandfathers and great-grandmothers turned to for all the news fit to print about Seabiscuit, Secretariat and just about...
It’s early autumn, and my friend Mason and I strike out on a glorious afternoon for an old-fashioned roadtrip. We’re en route to the little burg of Grantville, smack dab in the middle of the rolling hills of Central Pennsylvania...
Before I was brought on to be a correspondent for TrackPackPA, I had never been to a live horserace in my life. I even grew up around horses and even owned one when I was a teenager, but none of that compared to the excitement...
Saturday’s $750,000 Cotillion at Parx will highlight some of the sports greatest features: high stakes, high tension, and big money. It’s Tricky is a 5 time Winner in 7 Starts. Plum Pretty is a 3 time winner in 8 starts...
