"Shane believes in the music."Sellers, 34, has ridden more than 3,500 winners. He is presently recovering from knee surgery performed last month.

This time, Sellers will be performing songs from his first country recording, "God's Favorite Angel," prior to a concert by Stephen Bishop. Sellers will perform at approximately 2:10 p.m. (EST)."Shane is really looking forward to coming back to Gulfstream," said Andre Menzies, Sellers' production manager.Sellers, who entertained race fans and south Floridians at karaoke events in the mid-1990s, put together his recording in Nashville, using studio musicians.
