Jayson Werth, a former outfielder in Major League Baseball, was invited to be a guest coach for the Washington Nationals during spring training. He shared a story of inspiration with the young team, emphasizing the importance of seizing opportunities, drawing parallels between his baseball career and his experience as a horse racing owner.

Werth recounted a pivotal moment in his baseball career when he was given a last chance to prove himself and ended up excelling, leading his team to a World Series title. He then shared a similar experience with a horse he owned, Dornoch, who defied expectations and won a major race after being overlooked.

Now, Werth is focusing on another horse, Flying Mohawk, who has emerged as a top talent in the racing world. With a chance to qualify for the Kentucky Derby, Werth is embracing the opportunity to potentially participate in one of the most prestigious events in sports. He is also working to promote horse racing through his new venture, Icon Racing, and hopes to continue sharing the excitement of the sport with others.
