The Ed Brown Society and 1/ST are now in the fourth year of their partnership and during that time, five Ed Brown Scholars (undergraduates) and three Ed Brown Fellows (post-graduates), have completed spring internships, 1/ST said via a Thursday press release.
The Spring 2025 cohort included Ed Brown Fellow Joshua “JC” Berry and Ed Brown Scholar Chris Morales–both Louisville, Kentucky natives with limited prior exposure to the Thoroughbred industry.
The experience allowed Berry and Morales to see firsthand how various departments at Gulfstream, Santa Anita and Pimlico operated. The pair also had the chance to work with the 1/ST team during Preakness 150.
Jodie Vella-Gregory, VP, Industry Relations at 1/ST said, “Our partnership with the Ed Brown Society has been nothing short of transformative. These students and fellows bring talent, passion, and fresh perspective to every corner of our organization.”
