Aron Wellman, founder of Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners, shifted from a career in law to horse racing, seeking success through partnerships. This year, his colt Journalism is a frontrunner for the Kentucky Derby, boasting strong points from previous wins. Despite his favorable position, Journalism must perform well in the impending Santa Anita Derby to secure his place at Churchill Downs. Wellman respects rival horse Citizen Bull, acknowledging the competitive landscape. His commitment to excellence reflects in their preparation for the Derby challenge ahead.
Wellman emphasized the significance of the upcoming Santa Anita Derby for Journalism, stating, "This is a Grade 1 that carries with it a lot of importance and it would be a huge feather in Journalism's cap to add it to his resume."
As he prepares for the Santa Anita Derby, Wellman acknowledges the challenges Journalism faces, adding, "We have an enormous amount of respect for Citizen Bull. He's the champion. So until somebody knocks him off his throne, he's the champ."
