Nicholson to succeed Marzelli as Equibase chairman

Keeneland Association President Nick Nicholson will become the third chairman in Equibase Co.’s 20-year history when he succeeds Alan Marzelli at the end of the year.

“I am humbled and honored to serve in this role,” said Nicholson, who along with Marzelli and Jockey Club colleagues Hans Stahl and David Haydon crafted the original business plan for Equibase and then played a lead role in the negotiation of the partnership between The Jockey Club and member racetracks of the Thoroughbred Racing Associations of North America (TRA).

“I can’t think of a more suitable candidate than Nick to serve as Equibase’s next chairman,” Marzelli said. “He has been an important part of Equibase from day one, and he has always operated with the best interests of the industry in mind.”

Marzelli, who retired as The Jockey Club president last year, had succeeded Equibase founding chairman Ted Bassett in that role.

“Alan’s long association and stewardship of Equibase will serve as a classic model for Nick to follow, for his creative and loyal commitment to the best interests of the racing industry,” said Bassett, who also served as Keeneland president while serving Equibase. “Under Alan’s leadership, Equibase has continually expanded and enhanced the services it provides. Few have served as well and with such distinction, and Nick is cut from the same timber.”

Equibase has taken a proactive approach to getting users to interact with its information recently, launching an iPhone application, a racing yearbook, and a redesigned Virtual Stable experience within the past three months.
