Don’t miss the Parade of former racehorses at 12:25 - 12:40 in Parade Ring!
About RoR:
The parade showcases the versatility of the thoroughbred together with the range of activities open to horses when they finish their racing careers, thanks to the work of Retraining of Racehorses (RoR), British Horseracing’s official charity for the welfare of horses that have retired from racing
Today’s parade features some familiar names who have already adapted to a new career, notably the dual Grand National winner, Tiger Roll, the Gold Cup winner, Coneygree, and Cyrname, formerly the highest rated chaser in training.
To help stimulate demand for former racehorses within the wider equestrian market, RoR annually stages over 40 separate competition series across 15 different disciplines, catering for all levels of ability, from grassroots to elite. The disciplines include dressage, showing, polo, eventing, show jumping, endurance, hunting and horseball.
