We are extremely pleased to announce that Mike Smith, National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame Jockey, will join us as our guest speaker on Thursday evening. Smith partnered Zenyatta to 16 straight victories of a 19-for-20 race career that saw her become the richest female racehorse of all time. In 2018, Smith rode Justify to the Triple Crown, becoming the oldest jockey to win the title at age 52. Mike Smith is the second leading jockey of all time in earnings in over $312 million. A huge thank you goes out to Grace Arnold, as the sponsor of this grand event that you will certainly not want to miss.

On Friday evening, we join Carson Kressley, Emmy Award winning TV personality, style expert, fashion  designer and New York Times best selling author, as our host for a lovely Sunset Social Cocktail Reception to be held poolside at the Riviera Resort and Spa.
