JK + 1 - Ep 93 - Ian Sambor - Netflix Executive Producer "Race for the Crown" Apr 16, 2025

In Episode 93 of JK + 1, Jonathon Kinchen sits down with Ian Sambor, the Executive Producer of Netflix’s brand-new documentary series Race for the Crown, debuting globally on April 22. Sambor, whose impressive credits include King of Collectibles: The Goldin Touch and the Emmy-winning Shark Tank, joins JK to discuss the making of this highly anticipated deep dive into the high-stakes world of professional horse racing.

Race for the Crown comes from the same production team that brought you Formula 1: Drive to Survive and follows owners, trainers, and jockeys through a full Grade I stakes season—culminating in the legendary Triple Crown: the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, and the Belmont Stakes. With unprecedented access and cinematic storytelling, the six-episode docuseries takes viewers behind the scenes of the “most exciting two minutes in sports” and far beyond, offering a raw and riveting look at what it takes to chase glory in one of the most tradition-rich and grueling sports on earth.

Sambor talks with JK about the inspiration for the series, the challenges of capturing such a fast-moving and emotionally charged sport, and his hopes for how the show will shine a new light on horse racing's passionate community. They also reflect on the larger-than-life personalities within the industry—including billionaire owners like Michael Repole and Michael Iavarone—and the courage and dedication of the featured jockeys like Irad Ortiz Jr., Frankie Dettori, Javier Castellano, John Velazquez, Katie Davis, Umberto Rispoli, and many more.

Together, they explore how Race for the Crown captures the essence of the sport: a mix of heart-pounding competition, generational legacy, and the relentless pursuit of one nearly impossible goal—winning the Triple Crown. With only 13 horses in history ever having completed the feat, the stakes are always sky-high and the stories are as compelling as any in sports.

This episode also highlights the human side of racing, including the camaraderie, the sacrifice, and the hope that drives everyone involved—from those training in the early morning light to the owners gambling millions on potential greatness.

Don’t miss this in-depth conversation as JK and Ian go beyond the camera lens to talk storytelling, legacy, and the power of great people doing great things in a great sport!
