The Jockey Club Commercial Subsidiaries Reorganized
The Jockey Club Release
LEXINGTON, Ky.—Today The Jockey Club announced the rebranding of its wholly owned commercial subsidiaries – The Jockey Club Information Systems, The Jockey Club Technology Services, and InCompass Solutions Inc. – under a single commercial brand called TJC Innovations.
“To more efficiently meet the evolving demands of customers looking for comprehensive datasets and solutions that span the entire breadth of our businesses from breeding to racing to sales to retirement, TJC Innovations can service the customer with one call,” said James L. Gagliano, president and COO of The Jockey Club.
“In addition, a growing segment of the market is seeking more diverse and robust datasets to support big data applications such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. TJC Innovations has the raw data and expertise to work with the customer to ensure their unique demands are met.”
As part of the rebranding, TJC Innovations also announced three initiatives.
TLore
TJC Innovations executed an agreement to purchase the TLore Management LLC (TLore) business, a leading provider of racing stable management services and products to trainers in North America. Tracy Attfield, principal owner of TLore, said, “I am thrilled to become a part of The Jockey Club team and look forward to working alongside their industry-leading technology group to continue to build out the TLore platform and grow market share.”
”We are excited to bring Tracy on board to help materialize her vision of creating the industry-leading, feature-rich platform for trainers to manage their racing stables, share content with clients, and transact business directly with racing offices leveraging the speed and convenience of their mobile devices,” said Gagliano.
Attfield will continue to provide customer support and engagement while working closely with the professional software development team at TJC Innovations to continue to develop new tools to assist TLore’s customers in more efficiently conducting their business.
Halo
TJC Innovations announced it will supply North American Thoroughbred data to Halo (Halo.com.ai) for its AI initiative.
“The Jockey Club is pleased to work with Halo and other entrepreneurs as they seek to use AI technology to develop predictive tools and unlock the power of data,” said Gagliano.
Halo founder and CEO Neil Sands said, “We want to introduce the power of artificial intelligence and big data technology to the Thoroughbred industry to help people turn data into actionable information for decision making and prediction. As the official source for North American Thoroughbred data backed by a renowned technology group, The Jockey Club was our preferred choice, and we look forward to working with them for our data needs.”
Database Modernization Initiative
TJC Innovations recently launched a comprehensive project to modernize and expand The Jockey Club databases for growth and future initiatives utilizing an Amazon Web Services partner, Mission Cloud Services.
The cloud environment is expected to provide efficiencies with administration and enable accelerated time to market for customers increasingly seeking larger and more complex datasets to power next generation applications that rely upon AI and machine learning.
“While we have built several of our more recent products and services using cloud computing, this partnership with a leading Amazon partner will thoroughly modernize our database, which has served us well as the backbone of all of our data-focused companies,” said Gagliano.
“Through a comprehensive set of tools and training programs to guide technical and support teams, the official racing, pedigree, and breeding databases for North America will soon reside in a strong, secure cloud foundation with unlimited cloud computing and innovative technologies available to meet the increased demand for the foreseeable future.”
