Travis Kelce invests in racehorse named 'Swift Delivery'

Publish date: 2024-07-18

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and one-half of the celebrity power couple "Swelce" is expanding his reach beyond the football field and into the world of horse racing.

Taylor Swift's sweetheart recently invested in a racehorse -- aptly named Swift Delivery -- according to an announcement by Florida-based horse racing stable Team Valor International.

The news broke on the team's website Tuesday.

"BREAKING NEWS," according to the announcement. "Travis Kelce joins Team Valor International & Gary Barber in ownership of 3-year-old SWIFT DELIVERY."

Swift Delivery: A Name to Watch

According to bloodhorse.com, three-year-old Swift Delivery has earned more than $80,000 during his time on the racetracks so far, with two first-place and two third-place finishes in the past year.

But it's not the gelding's race record or its pedigree that's grabbing attention.

It's the name.

Whether the "Swift" in "Swift Delivery" played a part in Kelce's decision to buy in wasn't immediately known. Neither he nor Taylor Swift had weighed in on the purchase in the hours following Team Valor's announcement.

It could be argued "Swift" is a good luck charm for Kelce, who helped bring in another Super Bowl win for the Chiefs last year as Taylor Swift watched from the stands.

Whether "Kelce" is a good luck charm for Swift Delivery, though, is yet to be seen.

The investment in horse racing comes on the heels of Travis and Jason Kelce's investment into brewing company Garage Beer.
