This Week on The Big Time 🎙️ We’re catching up with Louisiana Lightning himself—Kendrick Carmouche!Fresh off his 4,000th career win at Aqueduct and honored this year with the prestigious George Woolf Award, Kendrick joins us to talk about his roots in Louisiana, breaking into horse racing as a kid, and rising to the top of the sport. Meanwhile, Anthony waxes nostalgic about the art of “stealing horses” (over cigars, of course), and John Del Negro tries to stump him with some high-stakes trivia. Plus, The Big A previews the upcoming Summer meet at Saratoga and recaps the highs and lows of the first half of the year.

In this week's episode we'll talk with Matt Dinerman, the voice of Oaklawn and Monmouth about how he broke into the sport, his journey working up and down the West coast, his duck collection and of course his answers to 5 1/2 Questions. Anthony (aka The Beast of the Belmont) will also give his picks for the 157th running of the Belmont Stakes and reminisce with a special tribute to trainer and friend Christophe Clement.
