BeGambleAware GamStop Gambling Commission The Royal Ascot Day 4 Races Like the previous days, there will be seven races in total on day four; we have listed the name, time, distance and age group of each of these races below. Royal Ascot Day 4 Tips Starting off the fourth day is Albany Stakes, Group 3; this is a six-furlong group with fillies ages two only; this is another day on which a fast race kicks off the events of the day. Following this is the Commonwealth Cup, which is the most popular of the day. This race was established back in 2015 and is exclusively for fillies and colts aged three. Like the previous race, it is also six furlongs. Up next is the Duke of Edinburgh Handicap, a handicap race when each horse is allocated a weight baes on its ability to try and equalise every horse's chance of winning. The higher the horse's handicap, the more weight they are required to carry. The halfway point of the day, race four, is the Coronation Stakes which is across one mile and can only be run by fillies aged three. After this race is the Sandringham Stakes race which has the same conditions as the previous Britannia Stakes race on day three but is only open to three-year-old fillies, it is often shocking how much effect the conditions of a race have on a horse’s chance of winning, and this can include heat, rain or cold. For example, Hayley Tuner won at 33/1 odds two years running due to conditions and the effects it had on other horses. Race six is the King Edward VII Stakes which is a race run just over one mile (one mile and four furlongs). It is only open to Colts and Gelding, which are three years old. Last, in the day, race seven, is the Palace of Holyroodhouse Stakes, which is another handicap race. This race is only five furlongs, making it the quickest of the day. This is the largest race of the day, with sixty runners, all aged three. Conclusion In conclusion, bettors and racegoers should expect a similar fun and thrilling experience as they will have had on the previous three days. This is the day with the races with the most runners; one race even has a whopping sixty runners, which is the second largest race of the five days; the first is the Wokingham Stakes race on day five which has 66 runners.

Rollin' with Flavor: Introducing Davila’s on Wheels at El Camino Food Truck Park

Davila's BBQ

There’s a new food truck in town, and it’s powered by third-generation pitmaster Adrian Davila! This award-winning restauranteur and cookbook author is taking his mouth-watering menu on the road with his new food truck, Davila’s on Wheels. Starting in July, Davila’s on Wheels will join the lineup at the famed El Camino Food Truck Park. Adrian’s latest concept expands his family-owned restaurant with a fresh take on catering that includes Texas barbecue with a Latin spin. For Adrian, the food truck is a way to bring his family's barbecue tradition to new audiences in the city and allows him to share his passion with more people than ever before. “Whenever we had the opportunity to be a vendor at the AT&T Center for the Spurs, we received a great reaction from the community of San Antonio. The Spurs reflect the people and culture of the city, and found they truly connected with our food and story. We were invigorated more with having a presence there and being a part of the rich history and are very excited to be a part in a new way.” The menu will be South Texas Tejano-inspired cuisine that’s a mix of modern Mexican comfort food. What you would expect from the menu is something you enjoy from your abuela’s kitchen but with a modern twist infused with the classic smoke and spice known from Davila’s BBQ. Approachable and made for sharing, dine on items like peanut butter mole wings, lamb barbacoa tacos, brisket grilled cheese, and more! Adrian Davila is a nationally-recognized barbecue restaurateur, chef, and pitmaster at the acclaimed Davila's BBQ in Seguin, TX. His grandfather, Raul Davila, opened Davila’s in 1959, more than a half-century ago, and passed on the secrets of his smoked BBQ to Adrian’s father, Edward Davila. The Davilas are deeply proud of their Mexican-American roots and family tradition of creating the best barbecue in Texas. Adrian credits his grandfather and father with teaching him the value of hard work. “They laid a wonderful foundation and footprint for Davilas. They are men of little words, but their dedication to their business and family to put food on the tables has inspired me since I was young. My grandfather put in the early hours getting the restaurant started, and my father expanded into catering, and sought different opportunities for business. Their entrepreneurial spirit set me up and allowed me to be able to travel and cook all over the world, write a cookbook, and continue to expand the brand.” Most of his youth was spent in the kitchens of the barbecue restaurant, learning all the special techniques until he could prepare everything on the menu to perfection. Adrian still practices those skills today and has since created unique barbecue recipes for the restaurant and their extensive catering business, including his new venture, Davila’s on Wheels. Adrian’s cookbook “Cowboy Barbecue: Fire & Smoke from the Original Texas Vaqueros” is the perfect inspiration for your next backyard barbecue. He was also featured as a judge on the Travel Channel’s show “American Grilled,” as a contestant (and first-place winner) on the Food Network show “BBQ Blitz Texas Takedown,” as a guest chef on the Food Network’s “The Kitchen” and as a judge on the Food Network’s “BBQ Kids Champion.” Adrian is also frequently featured in publications, including the San Antonio Express-News, MySA, San Antonio Edible Magazine, and the Seguin “Sizzle” Gazette. You can also find Davila’s BBQ at the AT&T Center for the 2022-2023 Spurs Season and during the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo. So if you're looking for some life-changing barbecue in San Antonio, check out Adrian Davila's new food truck. With his passion for barbecue and commitment to using the best ingredients possible, you’ll want to line up Thursday morning ahead of the rush for his next food truck appearance. In 1959, Davila's BBQ was first opened by Raul Davila in an old abandoned school house in Seguin, TX. With no decorations and no cash register, the Davila family nestled in the back two rooms of the restaurant and opened for business. Nearly sixty years and three generations later, Davila's BBQ has continued to grow and been nationally recognized as one of the top BBQ places in Texas. Third generation Pitmaster Adrian Davila now leads the restaurant and continues the tradition with passed down family recipes. Adrian celebrates traditions of Latin America and Texas, taking inspiration from the vaquero lifestyle of his own family history, infusing classic brisket, ribs and sausage with Latin flavors and ingredients. In 2018 Adrian released his first cookbook, Cowboy Barbecue, which has been featured on the Today Show, The Washington Post, and Texas Monthly.

Carey Bringle Partners with Josh Williams For Another Year at the NASCAR Xfinity Series

Peg Leg Porker

A few years after Carey Bringle opened the Peg Leg Porker restaurant, he got a call from an ARCA race car driver's manager asking if he would feed a team in exchange for a sticker on his car in the Nashville race. She talked about how this independent driver visited children's hospitals in every city he raced in. The story hit home for Carey, a pediatric cancer survivor himself. That driver was Josh Williams and he won the race that night. Ever since that race, Josh and Carey have kept in touch and Peg Leg Porker has sponsored Josh's car in his Nashville races. Since that time, Carey started more ventures and Josh moved up to the Xfinity series. One thing didn't change, the connection between the two. Both are fiercely independent and both share a passion for supporting charitable causes. In fact, last year, Josh was a finalist for the Comcast Community Champion Award. The ceremony was in Nashville and Carey was right there to support Josh's amazing charitable work across the country. This year is no different. Peg Leg Porker will again be a sponsor on Josh's car and while Josh is in town, he will make a visit to Vanderbilt Children's Hospital. The TN Lottery 250 is this weekend on Saturday at the Nashville Superspeedway. The race starts with driver intros at 2:00 CST. A Nashville native, pitmaster Carey Bringle has been competing in barbecue contests for more than 27 years, and has the blue ribbons to prove it. With a deep southern background built around family values and appreciating a good meal, Bringle founded Peg Leg Porker in 2013. Peg Leg Porker is named after Bringle himself and his greatest win, a cancer battle that he triumphed at the age of 17. With his win, he lost his leg, which led him to create a new name and only added more fire to his passion for success. What started out as a whole hog BBQ team and catering business, turned into a whole lifestyle brand, inclusive of spirits, sauces and spices, to accompany world-class BBQ. Upon opening its doors in the heart of Nashville, Peg Leg Porker was quickly named one of the hottest BBQ joints in the country by numerous media outlets, including Food Network, The Travel Channel, BBC, Southern Living Magazine, Texas Monthly, GQ, Garden and Gun Magazine, and many more. Peg Leg Porker is known for its juicy, smoked-to-perfection pork ribs drenched with a spicy dry seasoning *after* being smoked. Not to mention they're made from scratch, yet playful sides, like Kool-Aid pickles and pork rind nachos, plus Peg Leg Porker’s southern hospitality have guests feeling right at home. Peg Leg Porker has expanded, sharing their ‘cue with fans all over the world with their e-commerce site to ship nationwide. Although many wish Bringle would open another location, there will only be one Peg Leg Porker. Bringle says, “We’re building a legacy, not a chain.” This year, they will be celebrating a decade of being a part of the Nashville community and are excited to continue to be a part of it for many years to come.

Twang Partners LLC President and CEO, Elysia Gonzales Named 2023 Top Woman in Grocery by Progressive Grocer

Twang Partners LLC

We invite you to visit the Twang website at https://www.twang.com/ to learn more about the company and its products. We are thrilled to announce that Elysia Gonzales, President and CEO of Twang, has been selected as a 2023 Top Woman in Grocery by Progressive Grocer. This prestigious recognition highlights Gonzales’s exceptional leadership and contributions to the food industry, specifically in the category of Senior Level Executive. Progressive Grocer’s 2023 list of “Top Women in Grocery” (TWIG) will be unveiled in the upcoming June print issue and on the website by mid-June. The TWIG gala celebration and leadership development program will take place on November 8-9, 2023, at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress in Orlando, Florida. As President of Twang, a San Antonio-based Latino-owned beer salt company, Elysia Gonzales has revolutionized the acceptance and popularity of beer salt across the United States, making "dressing your beer" a common practice. Overcoming stereotypes and challenges as a mother of four, Gonzales has persevered to graduate from college while successfully leading the growth of Twang. She considers Twang employees her second family and is deeply involved in her community. She supports various local charities, businesses, and initiatives such as food drives for the San Antonio Food Bank, school supplies drives, and the THRU Project, which provides foster youth with support and essential resources. Under Gonzales’s direction, Twang has earned recognition as one of the "Best Places to Work” in the San Antonio Business Journal for three consecutive years, with over half of the employees having been with the company for five years or more. She oversees a workforce of 60 employees at the company's 50,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in San Antonio and manages operations at their Mexico plant in San Luis Potosi as well. During her leadership, Twang has experienced remarkable growth, with sales nearly doubling over the past five years. Even during the challenges posed by the pandemic, Gonzales retained and paid 100% of their employees. Twang has also forged strategic partnerships with local organizations and national brands, including Heineken USA (Dos XX) and Boston Beer Company (Truly Seltzers). Elysia Gonzales is eager to discuss various topics related to her journey and Twang's success, including her community involvement, creating a positive work environment, managing company operations, driving sales growth, and the popularity of beer salt in Texas and beyond. "I enhance eating and drinking experiences, from dressing beers using Twang beer salts to unique flavorful rimming salts for margaritas and creating different flavors of all-in-one michelada cocktail mixes. Millions of our products are manufactured, sold, and distributed in over 20,000 store shelves across the country," says Elysia Gonzales. In 1986, Twang Founder Roger Treviño Sr. left his career after experiencing an epiphany while on a business trip in Mexico. Visiting a Mexican street vendor selling citrus salt, he was reminded of his childhood in San Antonio, with its abundance of Latino flavors.
