• Del Mar Racetrack: ‘Where The Surf Meets the Turf’

  Southern California’s Del Mar Racetrack has been somewhat forgotten by the general public in recent years, overshadowed by East Coast venues like Churchill Downs and Belmont Park. The reality is that the 72 year old track has a history to rival their better known counterparts. Operated by the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club and located 20 miles North of San Diego, its perhaps most famous for its iconic slogan “Where The Surf Meets the Turf” but that only scratches the surface of its star studded history.

• Travel Insurance

  With the market of travel insurance being so competitive and the costs regularly reviewed and improved, what has always been a necessity when travelling can now be viewed in a pleasant light and no longer considered as a burden for the average traveler and holiday-maker. If you can’t afford travel insurance then you can’t afford to travel and besides, it is far more liberating to know that, just in case you’re out of luck, most traumatic events while travelling can be remedied or assisted by the cover you purchase before you leave. This far outweighs the disappointment of wishing you had spent a little extra on travel insurance.

• Seattle Slew’s Legacy Of Horse Racing Greatness

  Seattle Slew–the last living Triple Crown winner–died on May 7, 2002 at the age of 28. As one of only 11 Triple Crown winners in history, he is by default one of the greatest horses in the history of thoroughbred racing. Of those 11 legendary animals, Seattle Slew was the only one to complete the Triple Crown with an undefeated record, as well as the only one to have been purchased at a public auction. After retiring in’78, Slew became one of the most important and successful stud horses in the history of the sport. He sired 1,066 foals including 102 stakes race winners. Among this impressive group of offspring was the’84 Kentucky Derby winner, Swale. All told, Slew’s offspring have won an amazing $76 million dollars at the race track. Slew’s stud fee of $300,000 made him a very profitable horse even after his racing career was over. Slew wasn’t a particularly attractive horse, but he had the toughness of a championship boxer and the sort of intestinal fortitude and desire that can only be given by The Creator.

• Cheap Travel Insurance

  The cost of your travel insurance is important but what’s more important is the level of service provided during an insurance claim. Many travel insurance packages are similar to each other as the dangers encountered on travels are much the same for everyone. Having said that, travel insurance comes at vastly varying costs. Seeking out cheap travel insurance should not jeopardise the quality of your cover but you need to read the small print accompanying any policy before buying it. There are hoards of travel insurance providers and a policy can be sent to you no matter where you are as long as you have internet access. You can even buy your insurance as you’re about to leave in the airport. The ideal people to get you travel insurance from are travel insurance providers, not companies that provide travel insurance on the side and don’t specialise in it.
