To enforce this, all horses are now required to have an “accountable person” who is responsible for informing NZ Thoroughbred Racing (NZTR) of the death, retirement from racing or breeding of a horse in their care. This person can be an owner, manager, trainer or other person responsible for the horse's care.

If the horse is to be retired, this accountable person must ensure that the horse is given or sold to a person with an adequate working knowledge of Thoroughbreds and must provide the NZTR with the new owner's contact details. NZTR has been following up with the owners of registered horses that are listed as inactive on its website.
