Chad Collins on Losing It at 13, Fighting at Maccas & Why Jim Morrison Plays Him in the Movie

Picking Buckeye, Vetting Race Horses & the Half Yours Melbourne Cup Miss
Q: Tell us how you selected Buckeye?
Cameron explains that Buckeye was identified through a data-driven process; although not initially the top pick, Buckeye stood out upon reviewing pre-race data rather than just considering recent form. The horse was bought as a yearling for 200k, well-bred, and had a solid performance history, which, combined with strong sectional data, convinced them to pursue it as a syndication option.
Jordan Abbey Young & Beau Jones on Thor, Aquaman & Aussies in Hollywood

A variety of informal hangouts and private house gatherings with friends, where the lines between work, fame, and personal life blur, illustrating the chaotic but humorous side of their experiences.
