“Winning races on the international racing circuit is always beneficial because it draws attention to you and helps to build your brand. I want to continue to build the Dane Nelson brand,” Nelson told The Supreme Racing Guide of the Jamaica Observer.
“Everyone’s desire is to be referred to as a champion jockey wherever they ride. It would be fantastic to win a championship up here but it will be difficult.
