TDN Weekend

22 WINE-COUNTRY RACING Rachel Alexandra, great racing, and great wine? In Sonoma, you can have it all. By Bill Finley Those of us who have made horse racing our lives can certain- ly understand the fascination with it. One of the remarkable things about the sport is its ability to continually draw in new devotees, and to have have it quickly become one of the most important things in their life. This month, we delve into the story of just such a person, Jaime Roth, one of racing's most successful new owners, who, along with her parents, oper- ates LNJ Foxwoods. Also, if you love going to the races on days when the crowd gives you the feeling that something special is happening there, you'll love our off-the-beaten path story about racing in Sonoma's Wine Country, one of the sport's most enjoyable venues. In the Southern Hemisphere, if you're getting ready to go racing at the Sydney Carnival, we know just the woman to make sure you're properly out- fitted. Back in Kentucky, spring means Keeneland, and we'll clue you in to Keeneland's hottest ticket—the annual Maker's Mark bottle signing, which has raised millions for charity, and has helped to keep the long bond between two Kentucky in- stitutions strong. And finally, our popular TDN feature, This or That, makes its TDN Weekend debut in video form, just in time for OBS April.
