Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

Hailie Deegan and AM Racing announced they would part ways after 17 Xfinity Series races following the weekend at the Chicago Street Course. It was a disappointing end for Deegan, who struggled in the No. 15 Xfinity car. Then, the former Xfinity Series driver was spotted at Iowa Speedway last weekend, where the NTT IndyCar Series was racing.
According to David Land, Deegan was on site for the IndyCar weekend at Iowa, specifically hanging around Indy NXT. This is very notable as Deegan looks to make the best decision for her racing career. Could a move to Indy NXT with a team, such as Andretti Global, allow her to join the NTT IndyCar Series eventually?
Andretti Global has an extensive Indy NXT program, which could allow Deegan to develop for a few years at only 22 years old. Deegan hasn’t run well in the Xfinity or Truck Series, so a move to an open-seat vehicle shouldn’t be ruled out. There is still a place for Deegan in NASCAR but the IndyCar Series would be another great landing spot.

Coral Springs, FL

Alex Arango, the owner of Top Pro Motorsports in Coral Springs, Florida, near Fort Lauderdale, is a busy person who wears a lot of hats. Over the course of one week in June, he ran his dealership, which currently sells and provides service for used sport-oriented motorcycles, parts and accessories, traveled with his Top Pro race team to the MotoAmerica races in Minnesota, signed a new title sponsor for the team, raced in the MotoAmerica Superbike class, did trackside support for his Top Pro team, rebuilt a teammate’s BMW motorcycle after he crashed, built two engines for another race team, and started on an engine for an anonymous celebrity. Sounds exhausting? Arango likes what he is doing and wouldn’t change a thing.

Sublette County, WY

Bondurant, WY

Billionaire Joe Ricketts has ordered crews to immediately stop construction of his long-planned Sublette County luxury resort, and restore the area to its natural condition. A project that would have made a tourist destination out of the tiny, sleepy Hoback River basin community of Bondurant has been called off because of protective wildlife stipulations that abbreviated the construction season. Ricketts sought an exemption from the seasonal restrictions, which he claimed in a memo obtained by WyoFile would have increased the cost of building the high-end all-inclusive resort by $60 million to $100 million, but his request was denied .
