Animal Kingdom's Man Takes a Seat at the Microphone

· 1 min read

Barry Irwin, who leads Team Valor International, is the latest guest on the TDN Writers' Room podcast, which Keeneland presents. Plenty of good horses have carried his operation's name, and the best of them is Animal Kingdom, winner of the Grade I Kentucky Derby in 2011. For anyone who follows the American classics, that is reason enough to tune in: the man behind a Derby winner, talking with the writers who cover the sport.

With reporting from Thoroughbred Daily News.
