Travis Kelce is now a partial owner of a racehorse amid his $100m podcast deal with his older brother, Jason, as he named it in tribute to his popstar partner Taylor Swift.

On Tuesday, Team Valor, which is owned by 2011 Kentucky Derby winner Barry Irwin, announced that Kelce ‘acquired a significant share of’ their three-year-old gelding — Swift Delivery — along with the Zoldan family, who invited the three-time Super Bowl champion to Churchill Downs on race day back in May, according to Blood Horse.

Swift Delivery is also owned by Gary Barber – a South African-born American film producer, who was formerly the chairman and CEO of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. He is also co-founder of Spyglass Entertainment.

Bruce Zoldan is the found and CEO of Phantom Fireworks – the largest pyrotechnic retailer in North America. His son, Alex, is close with Kelce.

Swift Delivery won his first start for Team Valor and Barber in an allowance race in July at Woodbine and is set to return to the Toronto racetrack to make his stakes debut at a mile on the grass in the Toronto Cup on August 31st.

‘That’s so cute,’ a fan reacted to Kelce’s name choice for the racehorse.

‘He knows that Swift name is 100 percent winner,’ said another.

”’Swift delivery sponsored by Taylor Made” i’m sorry to all the other competitors but they do not stand a chance, there’s no competing with blondie’s luck,’ someone else quipped.

”’babe, it’s name is swift delivery & the jockey is Patrick, I have no choice but to do it,’ a different person joked while also referring to Patrick Husbands.

‘He better trade mark that name,’ a user pointed out.

Earlier on Tuesday, Kelce’s nine-figure podcast deal was announced, giving exclusive right ad sales and distribution rights to Wondery, an Amazon company. Jason Kelce is also a co-host on the show.

‘We couldn’t be more excited to team up with Wondery for the next phase of New Heights,’ the Kelces said in a statement.

‘We love this show, and the fanbase that has grown with us over the last two seasons. Wondery understands the shared vision and will offer a wealth of experience and resources to take us to New Heights! We are going to create some groundbreaking moments together through this partnership.’
