The Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance (TAA) will be at Belmont Park this weekend for the GI Belmont Stakes Racing Festival and will be honored with race to highlight accredited aftercare. The Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance Race will be Race 10, on Thursday with a post time of 7:45 p.m. Following the running of the race, a presentation will be made to the winning connections, which includes a branded blanket and swag bag.
Additionally, the TAA will co-host the winning guests from one of the VIP experiences, donated by NYRA, auctioned off earlier this year in the “Off to the Races” campaign, promoting aftercare awareness. Winners from the VIP experience will enjoy the weekend of racing with a table for six, buffet meals, parking, and paddock access.
“NYRA is committed to supporting the work of the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance in ways that advance the shared mission of protecting, re-training and re-homing Thoroughbreds when their racing days are done,” Kevin Quinn, NYRA VP of Sales and Hospitality said. “The Belmont Stakes provides an ideal stage to expand the public's understanding of the meaningful aftercare efforts underway in New York, and we are pleased to welcome the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance back to Belmont throughout the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival.”
