Protecting Racehorses for Second Careers
This is a good article which posted up on BloodHorse.com yesterday.

Horse retirement and aftercare should be a natural bi-product of everything in horse racing. It's sad people have to make a push for it.
At Louisiana Downs, we have nothing setup (right now) to assist with horse retirement. I am currently working to get something set, but who knows if it'll get the a-okay stamp. That said, in the larger picture of everything horse racing, horse retirement won't save the game. Like I said, it should be something automatic and hopefully it can get to that point. |
A reminder, for anyone who'd like to make a donation. For anyone who has ever thought "I really should do that someday" - maybe today could be the day. :)
A couple of minutes, a few dollars... it will help. We owe them that. http://www.canterusa.org/ http://www.trfinc.org/ |
