Horse Racing Ireland has announced the Irish Thoroughbred Welfare Council best-turned out league, in which participating racecourses will compile their best turned out winners with the data to be aggregated by HRI and cash prizes to be awarded to the best performing yards.
John Osborne, equine welfare and bloodstock director at HRI, said, “The care of our horses is largely in the hands of our stable staff whose work is greatly appreciated. The presentation of the horses is really a reflection of all the days spent preparing the horses at home. The best turned out league will particularly highlight the yards which consistently do well even if they are at a numerical disadvantage. The work required is the same, whether the yard is small or large.”
