65 | Victor Bahna | A Peek Inside Horse Racing

Being raised just a few miles from Long Island’s Belmont Park racetrack, Victor fell in love with horse racing during his high school years. Upon winning a few dollars his first day at the races, he was instantly hooked on the excitement, adrenaline and beauty of the sport. A few decades later, after relocating to Seattle, Victor ventured into the realm of thoroughbred ownership and purchased his first racehorse at Emerald Downs, located near Seattle. Today, he owns a pair of broodmares and manage a small racing partnership under the stable name of Royal Victory Thoroughbreds. Victor's time on the backstretch with professionals across the racing industry over the past two decades has given him the gift and joy of continuous learning while fostering a deep appreciation for the beauty, power and grace of the thoroughbred. Today Victor is a devoted advocate for racehorse welfare and longevity. His debut novel, Heliacal Star, draws on this passion and experience. When not writing, working as a tech executive (30 years in high-tech at Microsoft, Service Now and currently Nutanix) or spending time with his [18 year old] retired thoroughbred, Rooster City, he will attend the local races at Emerald Downs. Victor also travels to Belmont Park and Saratoga Springs with the friends from high school who first introduced him to the sport. Victor currently lives in Washington State with his wife and two children. Get in Touch with Victor: https://victorbahna.com Send us a message. We'd love to hear from you.
