ReRun Inc., founded in 1996, is one of the oldest Thoroughbred adoption programs in the nation and is the largest rehab and retraining program in New York and the northeast. The focus is primarily on horses retiring directly from New York and East Coast tracks.
ReRun operates the premier facility in New York and New England, a state-of-the-art facility with extensive rehab capabilities – taking in and placing more horses in the state than any other program. ReRun also offers support and education to local schools, Pony Club, and 4H groups.
Located in the Capital Region close to major tracks and interstates, ReRun has a capacity for 50 horses and is the permanent home of many fan favorites including New York Derby winner Fox Rules and stallion Giant Surprise, who ranked seventh nationally among first-crop sires.
ReRun partners with the New York Thoroughbred Breeding and Development Fund and the New York Thoroughbred Horsemen’s Association’s Take The Lead program to offer aftercare services to more than 120 horses per year. ReRun also boasts a low adoption return rate of less than 2 percent. ReRun does not mandate a donation when a horse is accepted into the program and will take New York bred horses retiring directly from the track regardless of injury or prognosis.
Recent graduates experiencing success away from the track include My Boy Tate and Mel’s Baby Sister, who were crowned New York’s Retired Racehorse of the Year in 2024 and 2025, respectively. Not Phar Now was the 2024 Thoroughbred Makeover Champion in Barrel Racing, and Corner Three won the Freestyle Broodmare Division at the 2025 Thoroughbred Makeover. Red Hot Lion was 2025 HITS Circuit Champion for the Take2 Thoroughbreds at Upperville.
ReRun owns the nationally renowned “Moneigh” program. Moneighs are works of art created by racehorses, both famous (such as Tapit, American Pharoah, Justify, and Storm Cat) and the not-so-famous, and their artwork is auctioned off, with proceeds benefiting ReRun and After The Finish Line. The entire creation and marketing process is patented and copyrighted and supported by the many owners, trainers and breeding farms of participating horses.
