The much anticipated Kentucky Futurity Week at the Red Mile with premier horses Deweycheatumnhowe, Celebrity Secret, Crazed, and Clerk Magistrate have top billing on the next episode of Trotters & Pacers, a standardbred series that airs weekly on TVG.
The Kentucky Futurity Week with the Yearling Sales, social involvement, Stan Bergstein's Annual Charity Auction, and the Kentucky Futurity, which is the third leg of the Trotting Triple Crown, presents nonstop activities. The stars of the future are purchased at the evening sales and then the stars of today race during the day.
The 30-minute program begins airing on Monday, October 20, at 9:30 a.m. [ET] and is repeated throughout the week. The fresh look at how many people in the harness industry contribute to Kentucky Futurity Week emphasizes the breath of the harness industry.
The TV audience gains a special view of how partnerships are created and how the successful owners approach the complex task of buying young horses.
The series is produced by Vigilante Films and has been financed by multiple stakeholders in the harness racing industry, Marsha Sugarman, Jerry Silva, David McDuffee, Lee DeVisser, Bill Weaver, and Margareta Wallenius-Kleberg.
Award-winning broadcaster Gary Seibel, long-time host of the Hambletonian on NBC and CBS, anchors the show. Seibel has been TVG's expert harness racing analyst as well as a key host for all breeds of racing.
