Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance will be onsite at Woodbine Racetrack for the fourth annual Woodbine Aftercare Day on Saturday, Oct. 5. Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance, which will present the GII Nearctic Stakes, will make the presentation to the winning connections, offering a Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance branded blanket and gift bag.
Additionally, Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance will present Best Turned-Out Horse Awards, sponsored by Josham Farms Limited, for all stakes races on Saturday. Winners of the awards will receive a gift bag featuring Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance-branded merchandise and a cash prize.
Throughout the day, jockeys and valets will have the chance to donate a portion of their race earnings to Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance for any races ridden on Woodbine Aftercare Day.
“Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance is extremely thankful to Woodbine Racetrack for their contribution and commitment to accredited aftercare,” said Stacie Clark-Rogers, Operations Consultant, Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance. “This day is dedicated to promoting and celebrating the Thoroughbred, both on and off the racetrack, and presenting the Best Turned Out Horse awards is a wonderful way to highlight that.”
