Wanted: Guest Writer on Thoroughbred Horse Transportation

Here at freightdawg.com, we write about all kinds of transportation and supply chains. However, the "freightdawg" doesn't know squat about race horses. After enjoying both the Kentucky Derby last week and the Preakness today (check out the Preakness blog as well!), I found myself wondering just what specialized transportation is required to move these expensive, and no doubt temperamental animals around. I know FedEx has a specialized business unit that handles international transportation of race horses.  But what else? 

I'd like to invite another freightdawg to write an article that can highlight what's involved in race horse transportation. Anybody who is well qualified can write me at ejoiner2@gmail.com. I'm looking for someone who knows the thoroughbred race horse transportation business and can write at a strategic level. This is an opportunity to be an ambassador for your industry. Note: the gig pays nothing, but your name will be in lights across the web. This kind of specialized content always gets linked.

I am not sure if I currently have the time available. I will check with our Kentucky Transportation Cabinet to see what resources might be available for you.

We operate a new Kentucky PPP freight complex.

FYI, I did learn on the History channel, that "Elise the cow" had her own private rail car. Borden used it to transport her back and forth from Chicago to Hollywood back in the thirty's.
