Interview with Ben Hayes
“It’s very unique with 3 brothers. I’ve probably been in the industry a little longer than both of them, but we’re all equal. We discuss and obviously disagree at times, but I think that’s what makes us better.”

“While value can mean different things to different participants in racing (economic value, or emotional value), it remains fundamental to the long-term sustainability of racehorse ownership.”
