Horse of the Week: Ticket to the Poor House

Thoroughbred
-Filly
-3-Year-Old
-15.3 hh

Ticket’s career on the race track came to an end when she bowed her right front tendon. After three months of re-hab she is now being ridden at KyEHC and will be assessed by a veterinarian to determine her full potential. Ticket has been very quiet under tack. She is easy to handle and groom and is now turned out with another gelding.



For more information on Ticket or any of the other horses at the Kentucky Equine Humane Center, visit /redirect.php?location=http%3a%2f%2fwww.kyehc.org%2f.
