You can still stay on top of all the latest horse racing news and hear

You can listen to Trackside Live, Racing Coast to Coast and Starting
Gate and more.

I just shook my head. I wrote them back and told them that 5 TVG hosts combined don't have as much horse racing knowledge and passion about the sport as Steve Byk has.

I got new-used car last November. It came with a free, life time subscription to Sirius. I thought, gosh, this is lucky. So I started messing around with the radio to see what was on all the channels. I got to 100 and thought, this is all crap anyway. I kept going. When I hit 126 I could not believe what I was hearing. Someone was talking about horse racing. I shouted out loud, "my people!, I've found my people!". So I listened and thought, who is this guy using all these big words? He finally said his name. Steve Byk. When I got home I looked up Steve Bic on the 'puter. Could not find him. I tried Steve Bick. Could not find him either. Ahh, go look on the Sirius site. Oh, it's Byk. Cool. Wondered what kind of name that is.

Since I got my new-used car I've become a much better handicapper. I hit the triple in the Derby and Belmont this year. I've watched the last 51 years of triple crown races and I can't recall a year when I've had this much fun. Prior to the Derby I would go home, feed the critters and then look up Mike Welsch's reports. Took notes and everything. Discovered DerbyTrail.com. and here I am.

Steve I can't thank you enough. You're the best.
Will follow you anywhere
