Stable Recovery: Horses Hold the Power on Path to Lasting Sobriety

04.09.2025

America’s Best Racing in partnership with Stable Recovery has produced a multi-part video series hosted by Lindsay Czarniak taking viewers behind the scenes to learn about one of the true treasures of the Thoroughbred racing industry, the Stable Recovery program, and some of the men impacted by this powerful initiative.

Christian Countzler and Frank Taylor of Taylor Made Farm co-founded Stable Recovery to help those fighting addiction. Recovering residents attend the School of Horsemanship at Taylor Made Farm and join a peer-driven therapeutic community with a focus on securing equine-related employment.

In a little more than two years of operation, the Stable Recovery program has 105 graduates that have reconnected with 1,600 family members, with 70% sobriety at six months and 100% sober and employed at graduation. The first installment of the America’s Best Racing series follows the journey of Edward “Boomer” Jones.
