The 2026 GP Stakes News Conference is less than two months away! This past week, we shared an early attendee snapshot of some of the firms attending, as well as revealing one of the three panels for the conference.
As a reminder, this is an invite-only conference, so if your application has not been approved yet, you are not confirmed to go.
