Description:
Lindsey Taylor became infatuated with horses as a young girl and fell in love with racing at age 12. The Georgia native and current Keeneland intern shares the details of her journey as a racing fan.
I am not sure if I became a fan of horse racing by coincidence or fate. I didn't grow up with horses, nor did I grow up in a place anywhere near areas that had horse racing. At the time I lived in Alpharetta, Ga., a suburb north of Atlanta, and somehow I inherited the “gene,” the “horse gene” as my mother likes to call it.
