Hello!

In the ever-evolving world of thoroughbred racing and breeding, we stumbled upon a 'startling' revelation. Apparently, ample turnout is crucial for the well-being of young horses. Who would've thought, right?

Here's where it gets even more 'shocking.' Recent studies have now 'uncovered' what we in the industry have known since, well, forever – without ample turnout, young horses might face increased risks of injuries and stress.

It's almost as if this is first-day stuff in Horsemanship 101!

But, in all seriousness, we've taken a deep dive into this topic in our latest article, "4 Insights on How Young Horses Thrive with Ample Turnout." It's a read that's both enlightening and, dare I say, a little validating for us industry veterans.

From physical health benefits to psychological and social development, we explore why ample turnout is a necessity for the holistic growth of young thoroughbreds, not just a luxury.

Whether you're just starting in the racing world or you've been around the track a few times, these insights are invaluable. Because, as it turns out, following the basics of equine care is still the best way to nurture future champions.
