From sport of kings to kings of sport…
The RRP works to increase demand and value for Thoroughbreds after racing, empowering horse owners with the skills and knowledge to achieve success with them in equestrian sports.
The results speak for themselves.
Aftercare industry professionals have seen unprecedented interest, translating to record numbers of horses placed. Adoption and purchase prices for Thoroughbreds at the conclusion of their racing careers have increased steadily in recent years.
More horses are gaining a solid foundation of retraining after racing, finding suitable homes and offering their new connections years of enjoyment and athletic viability.
Since 2013:
