A knowledgeable horse fan may want to buy the horse to take care of the animal though his golden years. The ex-racehorse may be able to be laid up for a short time period, and would make a great show horse, pleasure horse, trail riding horse, or maybe just a companion for an experienced horse person. The horses can have a new career after they retire from racing if they are given the chance. Support your local rescue organizations, persuade race tracks to aid in Thoroughbred Retirement programs, and be on the lookout for ex-racehorses that can be purchased when their racing careers are over. If you want to help, but can.
