Steve Byk
Race writer/broadcaster Steve Byk launched DerbyTrail.com in 2003, where his feature writing, race previews and editorials began attracting a loyal following. A contributor to The Blood-Horse since 2004, he joined ‘At the Races and Beyond’ on Sirius Satellite Radio in 2005, and began hosting ‘At the Races with Steve Byk’ in 2007. This is thoroughbred racing’s only national daily news and talk show and features a roster of the leading voices in the game from every perspective. Trainer Chuck Simon and Steve introduced Dee Tee Stables in 2006 as a way to bring fans into the game as owners at a minimal cost. For as little as $500, more than 125 partners have joined and seen 4 current Dee Tee runners compete at Saratoga, Belmont, Keeneland, Churchill Arlington and Turfway as owners. Steve is well known at Saratoga for his Carolina Barbecue Co. Cafe, and as the host of the Thoro-Graph Weekend Seminars. He was named to the NTRA's Horseplayers’ Coalition Advisory Panel in 2008.
