At Thoroughbred Placement Resources, we specialize in bringing out the best in each horse. We do not choose the horses that come here; instead, they are sent to us, usually sight unseen. We evaluate them, design a rehab and training program, re-evaluate as they develop, and when they’re ready we rehome them.
