I think this is awesome and I hope it comes to Camden Sc home of one of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundations Seabiscuit Stables at Wateree Correctional Facility. We have a lot of thoroughbred enthusiast here too. Also home of Carolina and Colonial Cup. 🙂 I am so excited about this. Not only will people be able to see that these horses are capable of more then just racing. If its not a Thoroughbred its just a horse.

I owned an ex-racehorse. She was a wonderful jumper

That orgaization is wonderful. Do they only get the rescue or slaughter horses? Do they have to pay if a trainer/owner has a horse or is it donated?

I think OTTBs would make excellent endurance horses. They have both the stamina and the speed.

This is fantastic!! What a wonderful way to prove that these horses have worth as something more than going to the killers. After the first set of shows, how about having them in different states?
