Their project, The Environmental Impact of Stud Farms Assessment, was funded by the Racing Foundation and instigated by the TBA's Environmental Sustainability Working Group. The goal of the group is to collaborate on grassland management practices that enhance air and water quality and soil health, mitigate flood risk and increase biodiversity, while also reducing the carbon footprints of studs. The study is the first of its kind in the horseracing industry and aims to identify the challenges and opportunities specific to equine pasture management.

James O'Donnell, Chair of the TBA's Environmental Sustainability Working Group and Assistant Stud Director at Shadwell Stud, said, “Winning this award is a major achievement for the horseracing industry and is the result of a true collaboration between the TBA and the Racing Foundation.

“Environmental sustainability is an important subject that will be at the forefront of people's minds going forward and this project, and subsequent award, is a great place to start.”
