Kudos to Mary Lou. Very nice, she's very deserving. She loves and supports Thoroughbred racing. Nice to give a recognition award to Team Zenyatta, too.

Mary Lou Whitney has done a lot to revive Saratoga Springs. She is very philanthropic there and in many other causes. She's especially dedicated to helping the workers on the backside - she and her husband sponsor a huge dinner with entertainment every Sunday after the races for the workers and their families.
Her husband is especially devoted to her and was of tremendous help to her in recovering from a devastating stroke in 2006. She is most deserving of a special Eclipse award.
