Growing up in New York City, Daria Mitchell and Walentya Paulzin weren’t aware of horse racing beyond a vague understanding that Belmont Park was where the horses ran.
But when they learned about the Ed Brown Society (EBS), became scholars with the organization and were selected for internships at the New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA), both got an education in the business of thoroughbred racing. And for Mitchell, NYRA is now a possible career landing spot when she graduates next spring from St. Francis College with an accounting degree.
