The versatility of Thoroughbreds was on display just a few miles from Keeneland Race Course Oct. 8-11 when the Retired Racehorse Project crowned 10 Thoroughbred Makeover champions at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington.

After two days of preliminary competition, the event’s new format was on display when 10 horses from each discipline continued competing in the ring they had visited in the preliminaries for the championship round on Saturday.

CARMA Goes Big for Horses, Ensuring ‘Aftercare is Not an Afterthought’

When it comes to horses, even the most cynical of souls has a hard time not falling for the large eyes and dynamic ears of a Thoroughbred. We are captivated by their hearts on the track and their personalities off of it, their faces as familiar to us as those of family and friends. They become a part of our racing lives and their welfare beyond their time in racing matters to us all. Enter organizations like California Retirement Management Account, or CARMA.
