Great stories on great horses was the theme of the night as guests Neil Howard and Scott Blasi joined us on this week's Insider Round Table Webcast!

Neil Howard is best known as trainer of Preakness winner, Summer Squall, and Horse of the Year, Mineshaft. Howard currently has two exciting stakes winners in the barn, Ben Ali winner, Eagle, and Ahh Chocolate, winner of the Allaire Dupont on Preakness eve.

Scott Blasi is the longtime assistant trainer to Hall of Fame inductee, Steve Asmussen. Over the years, Blasi has played a key role in managing such champions as fellow Hall of Fame inductees, Rachel Alexandra and Curlin, as well as more recent top horses like Untapable, Tapiture, Gun Runner, and Creator.

Hosts Joe Kristufek and Brian Zipse lead the conversation on this entertaining edition of the Insider Round Table Webcast.
