Bio
Travel Column pressed the pace in her career debut Sept. 4, 2020, at Churchill Downs, where she accelerated well clear in the stretch to romp by 4 ¼ lengths.
The Frosted filly followed with a distant third in the Grade 1 Darley Alcibiades Stakes, won by Simply Ravishing. Travel Column turned the tables on that familiar foe in the Grade 2 Golden Rod Stakes when she closed willingly late to pass Simply Ravishing, third-place finisher Coach, and runner-up Clairiere in deep stretch to prevail in the 1 1/16-mile race Nov. 28 at Churchill.

Travel Column returned from a 2 1/2-month layoff and made her 3-year-old bow in the Grade 2 Rachel Alexandra Stakes Presented by Fasig-Tipton Feb. 13 at Fair Grounds, where she led in deep stretch but was passed late by Clairiere.
Travel Column made her next start in the Grade 2 Twinspires.com Fair Grounds Oaks on Mar. 20, where she sought revenge against Clairiere. She avenged her defeat in the Rachel Alexandra, stalking the pace and drawing away to win handily in 1:42.75 for 1 1/16 miles. For that win, she earned 100 points towards the Grade 1 Longines Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs on Apr. 30.
Travel Column was well-beaten in her final two starts of her 3-year-old season, and went to the sidelines for more than a year. She made her 4-year-old debut in a third-level allowance optional claiming race at Churchill Downs on June 29, 2022, and won by 2 1/2 lengths.
Multiple stakes winner Swingit, by Victory Gallop, is the dam (mother) of Travel Column as well as 2017 Pegasus World Cup Invitational Stakes third-place finisher Neolithic.
