CLAREMORE, OK–JANUARY 31, 2025–StallioneSearch is excited to announce their newest team member, Kaylee Escobedo, who will serve as the company’s Social Media Influencer.

Kaylee expressed her enthusiasm for the role: "I am very excited for the opportunity to be part of the StallioneSearch team, bringing you updates and coverage from tracks nationwide."

Kaylee is a long-time racing enthusiast, having grown up in the industry. Her father, Gregg Sanders, is a leading trainer who won the All American Futurity and Derby. Additionally, she is married to Grade 1 Champion Jockey Edwin G. Escobedo, which has further deepened her immersion in Quarter Horse racing.

Having an already established online presence by promoting her husband as a jockey, Kaylee's focus on Quarter Horses and her travels to various tracks across the country align perfectly with StallioneSearch's branding and online marketing strategies.

"We believe Kaylee will effectively showcase the industry while promoting racing at numerous events," said Leann Noguera, StallioneSearch's Vice President of Operations. "Her connections within the industry will help guide her in a positive direction with our company, and we are very excited to have her on board."

Kaylee grew up on her parents' 60-acre ranch in Oklahoma, which was centered between Remington Park, Will Rogers Downs, and Fair Meadows racetracks.

She spent most of her days in the barn with her father, who had worked for many years under Hall of Fame trainers like Leo Wood, Charles "Bubba" Cascio, and Jack Dube. During her childhood summers, she was at Ruidoso, eagerly soaking up as much knowledge as possible and cherishing the experience.

Before going off to college, Kaylee had the opportunity to spend significant time working for Dr. Shan Collett at Collett Equine Veterinary Services. As a hands-on technician, she learned a great deal about caring for performance racehorses and gained a deeper understanding of the medications, treatments, and surgeries involved in their care.

Kaylee attended Northeastern State University back home in Oklahoma, but a year into it, her dad suffered a heart attack while tracking horses one morning in Ruidoso.

She immediately left her college town and headed to the mountain, where she helped run her father's barn, and started a journey that changed her life forever.

As she continued working for her father, Kaylee went on to meet her now husband, Edwin Escobedo, while running a 20-stall shedrow at Remington Park.

In 2023, she earned her Jockey Agent License and took over Edwin's book at Remington Park. In her first year as an agent, Kaylee helped him secure the leading rider title by actively promoting him on social media, showcasing his work, and advocating for him among trainers nationwide. They finished the year off with 110 overall wins.

Edwin rode for more trainers and horses that year than ever before. Although he fell just one win short of claiming the leading rider title for the second consecutive year in 2024, he still walked away from the mixed meet with the most Quarter Horse races won.

Recently, Kaylee decided to hand over Edwin’s books to legendary two-time Triple Crown jockey agent "The Don," Donnie Stewart. She is now fully transitioning into her new role as a Social Media Influencer with StallioneSearch.

After losing her father to heart failure in 2023, Kaylee still honors him by continuing on with the dreams they shared. She races the horses that they loved and built together. Her favorite horses are Imaginacion, a four-year-old gelding by Hes Relentless, who was her father's last winner and High Flying Cowgirl, a three-year-old filly by Flying Cowboy 123. Both horses are in training with Marc Jungers.

Be sure to watch for Kaylee at the upcoming races and welcome her in the new role as Social Media Influencer for StallioneSearch.com. Most currently, she will be at Los Alamitos and Remington Park.
