Barrel racer Egoli, a daughter of Quality Road, highlighted this year's broodmare division of the Retired Racehorse Project Thoroughbred Makeover, held at the Kentucky Horse Park last week. The 8-year-old not only claimed first place among broodmares but also posted the fastest time of any competitor–retired racehorses included.
Co-sponsored by Claiborne Farm and Lane's End Farm, the Broodmare Division returned for its second official year, offering $10,000 in prize money and showcasing the post-breeding potential of mares.
“Egoli's success at the 2024 Makeover demonstrates the vast, untapped potential broodmares possess beyond the breeding shed,” said Kyle Rothfus, President and Co-Founder of Mareworthy Charities. “We're proud to be part of this movement, showcasing how mares can thrive in second or even third careers.”
