Everett Dobson, founder of Dobson Communications Corp., of Oklahoma City, is a longtime friend and sometimes racing and breeding partner with fellow Oklahoman Don McNeill. The two hit the jackpot with then 3-year-old Caleb’s Posse, winner of the 2011 Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile. When McNeil chose to get rid of his racing stock after being diagnosed with leukemia, it was Dobson who urged him to keep at least one horse that they could race in partnership. Caleb’s Posse was that horse.

Other graded stakes horses owned alone or in partnership include 2017 Kentucky Derby hopeful Mastery as well as Madefromlucky, Genre, Light the City and Mystical Star.

Dobson, who sold his communications company to AT&T in 2007, has a 260-acre breeding farm, Candy Meadows, near Lexington, Ky.

Outside of racing, Dobson is managing partner of the Oklahoma City Thunder of the National Basketball Association.
