| BloodHorse Accepting Applications for Paid Intern | |
BloodHorse will accept applications through Friday, March 6, for a new paid internship position to work on the leading industry publication’s various platforms this summer. The accepted intern will work with the BloodHorse editorial department on its monthly magazine, website, BloodHorse Daily newsletter, and BH+ video platform. Interns will be given the opportunity to have published, byline work. The paid internship is being funded by BloodHorse, National Turf Writers and Broadcasters (NTWAB), and The Jockey Club. This is one of a record nine paid internships that the NTWAB and The Jockey Club are teaming together to help support in 2026. “We’re looking forward to continuing our internship program with support of the NTWAB and The Jockey Club to provide an opportunity for a journalist interested in covering the racing industry,” said BloodHorse editorial director Frank Angst. “At BloodHorse, we have a number of platforms to tell stories and any number of topics to cover, from racing to industry news, to sales to breeding.” The BloodHorse internship is targeted toward those with an interest in pursuing a journalism career in horse racing. The Lexington, Ky.-based internship will run over approximately 11 weeks this summer from late May until early-to-mid August. As the intern finds the subject matter and platforms that most interest them, they will have opportunities to spend additional time in those areas. The internship is open to students currently enrolled in a college or university or who have graduated within one academic year of the start of the internship. The internship application can be found here: bit.ly/BHIntern2026. The BloodHorse internship is in addition to The Jockey Club internship program, which accommodates up to three interns who gain exposure to all companies and departments within the organization, including BloodHorse. The Jockey Club interns for 2026 will be announced this spring. BloodHorse has chronicled the Thoroughbred industry since 1916 and is dedicated to the improvement of Thoroughbred breeding and racing. BloodHorse produces widely distributed daily and weekly editorial content on Thoroughbred racing and breeding, including via its namesake weekly magazine, BloodHorse Daily, and social media platforms.
