Audible Inc., the world's largest seller and producer of downloadable audiobooks and other spoken-word entertainment, will donate $25,000 to the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance May 5 as a continuation of the company's involvement with GI Kentucky Derby contender Audible (Into Mischief).
The check presentation is scheduled to take place in the regular winner's circle Saturday after the GII Churchill Downs S., which is carded as race 8 and has a scheduled post time of 2:45 p.m. Audible Inc. previously made a $15,000 donation to the TAA after Audible's win in the GI Xpressbet Florida Derby Mar. 31.
“The TAA is thrilled to see Audible Inc. get involved with horse racing through Kentucky Derby contender Audible and is extremely grateful for their contributions to the TAA,” said TAA president John Phillips. “These funds will help the TAA in our mission to establish a safe first exit from racing for horses and support accredited aftercare organizations that retrain, rehome, and retire Thoroughbreds.”
Audible Inc. created a microsite dedicated to their involvement that can be viewed here.
