The Retired Racehorse Project’s Thoroughbred Makeover was a success and the TAA is proud to see so many accredited organizations well represented with competitors in nearly every discipline.

Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance-accredited organizations were well represented with a number of graduates competing at the Fair Hill Thoroughbred Horse Show Sept. 22-23 at the Fair Hill Nature Center in Elkton, Maryland.

Four TAA high-point awards were given out during the 2018 T.I.P. Championships for horses that were adopted from TAA-accredited organizations.

With her 14-year-old off-track Thoroughbred Devin retired from jumping, Anne Stone was looking for a friend for the gelding. Then she spotted Mr Rosenthal online.

The Jockey Club Thoroughbred Incentive Program (T.I.P.), which encourages the retraining of Thoroughbreds into other disciplines upon completion of careers in racing or breeding, announced the winners and other placings from its 2017 performance awards program March 23.
