If you haven't checked out my most recent horse racing themed concept album, here's the synopsis of the story:
“In November 2024 Dave Stanton passed away. His estranged son Drew returned for the funeral and came upon his father's journal while cleaning out his childhood home. In it was a lengthy entry detailing the day Dave took Drew to see the thoroughbreds run in the summer of 1999. Tracks 1 - 9 represent Dave's writings. The finale is from Drew's perspective as he reflects on that day 25 years earlier when he and his dad briefly found some common ground. Ultimately it was not enough to mend their relationship but perhaps the lessons are sufficient to help Drew save his failing relationship with his own son.”
