Today’s RoR Parade

Don’t miss the Parade of former racehorses at 13:00pm - 13:15pm this afternoon in the parade ring! Kindly supported by Juddmonte

A parade of retired racehorses takes place in the paddock from 1pm. The parade, kindly sponsored by Juddmonte, showcases six of the different disciplines that thoroughbreds are retrained for and which Retraining of Racehorses (RoR) supports through the staging of competitions and classes. For over 20 years Retraining of Racehorses (RoR) has promoted the versatility of the thoroughbred and through its work, RoR has developed up an unprecedented demand for former racehorses in the wider equestrian market. RoR annually stages over 40 separate competition series across 15 different disciplines exclusively for former racehorses, catering for all levels of ability, from grassroots to elite. The disciplines include dressage, endurance, eventing, polo, show jumping and showing. There are over 10,000 horses currently registered with RoR enjoying active and fulfilling careers after racing. As well as developing an increased demand for former racehorses, RoR continues to provide a welfare safety net that ensures any racehorse in need of charitable support is quickly identified and suitably cared for.
