"We bought in to buy tickets. I think it went on sale on Wednesday. Believe it or not, we were successful in getting 2 out of 50 tickets," said David. "We immediately said we don't care what this cost, so we booked the airline and the hotel and made our way to Louisville."
All it took was being involved with myracehorse.com to help provide the experience that any horse lover would love.
