TOBA Breakaway Rail Talk | August Member of the Month: Steve Duncker
Presented by Rail Talk in partnership with the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association (TOBA)
This month on Breakaway Rail Talk, we sit down with Steve Duncker, TOBA’s August Member of the Month—a lifelong racing enthusiast, former NYRA chairman, and a passionate advocate for ownership partnerships in the Thoroughbred industry.
Steve chats with Joe Bianca to tell his story of how a teenage driveway-sealing business turned into his first racehorse investment, leading to a long and impactful career in racing. From owning a piece of champion Bates Motel to recent success with graded stakes winner Deterministic, Steve’s journey showcases the heart of TOBA’s mission.
He also reflects on his decades-long friendship with the late Christophe Clement and what it meant to be part of Christophe’s son Miguel earning his first Grade 1 victory in the Manhattan Stakes, as well as his time steering NYRA out of bankruptcy and the pride he takes in it flourishing today.

August Member of the Month:

Steve Duncker

Like his sire, Deterministic was good at three, and even better at four. As a sophomore, Liam’s Map won a stake, then tallied two grade 1 races at four; Deterministic has won graded stakes at three and four. Most recently, the dark bay colt annexed the June 8 Resorts World Casino Manhattan Stakes (G1T) at Saratoga for St. Elias Stable, Ken Langone, Steve Duncker, and Vicarage Stable. And Duncker is feeling the win’s impact deeply.
