Thoroughbred Connect:
A free online service designed to assist with placement of Thoroughbreds
following the conclusion of their racing or breeding careers. A
component of The Jockey Club's interactive registration, Thoroughbred
Connect enables registry customers to express their willingness to be
contacted by the possessor of a horse in the event the horse is in need

Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation:
The largest equine rescue organization of its kind, devoted to the
rescue, retirement, rehabilitation and retraining of thoroughbred
racehorses no longer able to compete on the track. We currently care
for 1200 retired racehorses daily with more than 650 additional horses
in adoptive homes. At re-training farms around the country, we prepare
racehorses for adoption as riding horses. At our correctional facility
farms, we provide a vocational training program for inmates as they
provide supervised care to our retired horses.
The Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation is a place that
offers a humane alternative to the dire possibilities that have long
faced a great majority of ex-racers - neglect, abuse and slaughter. It
is a place, built on love and caring, that is befitting such noble and
deserving animals.
