Stable to Stirrup

While the World understandably focuses on the welfare of the human race, those involved in anything to do with animals will be acutely aware of the effects the current situation can have on their charges. In racing, this is nothing new. Whenever horses are being worked and, hopefully in the near future, raced, there will inevitably some horses that are either not capable of competing, or are ready for retirement. In the past, there have been a few dedicated people who have put in a great deal of effort to assist in re-homing these animals, but with interest in animal welfare at a much higher level these days, the time has come for a more organised regime.
