I’m happy to report that I’m now an official member of the Thoroughbred Bloggers Alliance! You’ll notice that I’ve added the TBA members links and standings.

The standings, based on Graded Stakes (more info here) and are meant to underscore that horse racing is a SPORT first. The TBA also makes an annual donation to Old Friends in the name of the TBA Horse of the Year (based on the standings).

I’m really happy to be included in this diverse group of smart folks / racing fans. I’ve learned a lot from reading their blogs & comments and look forward to learning more.

Check out their sites if you haven’t already… mind you that’s meant for the 5 people who came here regularly who weren’t already TBA members. Man, my traffic has really jumped already and I’ve only been in the RSS feed & links since about 10 this morning!
