The American Set Tips
What They Ride

At Hernandez Farm, the Barn and the Ball Diamond Belong to the Same Family

· 1 min read

America's Best Racing has looked past the racing colors to profile Hernandez Farm, where the horses share the spotlight with baseball and a family that clearly enjoys both. The profile opens with a Louisiana childhood, and it shows a racing operation that is also a home. This page covers the people behind the horses as well as the horses, and an outfit where the barn and the ball field both matter is a fair picture of how American racing runs at its best.

With reporting from America's Best Racing.
