Races-to-Ring

Cowgirl Up with Green has started an incentive with several horse show venues/ events to acknowledge the Off the Track Thoroughbred horses. As horse people we love and appreciate horses of all types and breeds. Coming from a racing background we would like to show appreciation to the horses that have graduated from the racetrack and have taken on a new discipline. As per humans it is not always easy to jump right into a new job or career; after years of experience from another field. That being said teaching an OTTB to compete in a new discipline other than racing is a transitional process from the skill that the horse had developed during their racing career. Therefore, CGUG has taken it upon ourselves to present the High Point OTTB award at the horse shows to recognize these amazing athletes in the show ring.
