In early 2025, co-hosts Leah Alessandroni and Leah O’Meara launched The Paddock Pulse podcast with one goal: to share the beauty of our sport and the incredible equine athletes who make it so special.

The Paddock Pulse Podcast takes you inside the world of Thoroughbred racing and breeding with candid conversations, fresh perspectives, and stories straight from the paddock. Our hosts sit down with trainers, breeders, fellow industry leaders, and emerging voices to explore the people, horses, and ideas that make up the heartbeat of the racing and breeding industry.

The Paddock Pulse Podcast is a fresh, thoughtful, and forward-looking show that brings real conversations from across the Thoroughbred industry straight to fans, professionals, and newcomers alike.

Each episode blends insight, storytelling, and practical knowledge, spotlighting the individuals shaping the Thoroughbred world: trainers, breeders, owners, aftercare leaders, handicappers, media voices, and innovative changemakers.
