ReRun Thoroughbred Adoption and After the Finish Line will restart the popular Moneigh auctions–abstract artwork created by horses using their lips, muzzle, hoof, and/or whiskers–later this week. Eighteen original Moneighs by Breeders' Cup winners and competitors will be up for bid, including original artwork by Cody's Wish, Serena's Song, Authentic, Kitten's Joy, Afleet Alex, Blame, Ghostzapper, Midshipman, and others.
“This new collaboration between charities means proceeds will help even more Off-Track Thoroughbreds in need. The Moneighs are back with a fresh new look and exciting new stallion, broodmare, and pony horse artists for racing fans,” said ReRun Executive Director Lisa Molloy.
It's been nearly two years since Moneighs were last offered. With the name a combination of famed artist Monet and the neigh a horse makes, Moneighs are a registered trademark of ReRun, Inc., which partners with After the Finish Line to create the paintings and prints that are sold to benefit both aftercare organizations.
“Racing fans can bid on their favorite Thoroughbreds that they once followed on the racetrack. Moneighs are a way to connect with the legends of horse racing,” said After the Finish Line President Dawn Mellen.
The first new Moneigh auction will run Sunday, Oct. 20 to Sunday, Oct. 27, with a closing time of 9 p.m. ET. Bidding will be available at ebay.com/str/rerunthoroughbred.
