Robert Cotran

Director

I have been passionate about horse racing since I was a child and always dreamed of one day owning my own horse. I have been a horse owner since I claimed my first horse in 1985. I understand the sport of thoroughbred horse racing but also understand what it takes to be successful. I consider it a privilege to be on the board and work hand in hand to keep racing heading in the direction.
