Horse Of The Month Retired Thoroughbred Racehorse Every month we will be featuring a
retired Thoroughbred racehorse that needs a loving home. We believe that our
brave and beautiful thoroughbred racehorses deserve a dignified retirement.
Our aim is to offer an alternative to owners and trainers - rather than have
horses continue to race that are no longer able to compete,
LongRun tries
to help by fostering, rehabilitating and finding these racehorses permanent
adoptive homes and alternative careers as pleasure horses or companion
animals. "Dawn Watcher"
For more info visit: Name:
Dawn Watcher Race History: Stakes-placed, 43 starts, 10 wins, $494,159, 2nd Ontario Jockey Club S., etc. Notes: This handsome handful earned close to half a million dollars during his six seasons at the track and was good to many people along the way. Woodbine’s leading rider, Emma-Jayne Wilson, learned to gallop on him and has been very generous in her sponsorship of him, while the rest of the Woodbine jockey colony anted up to take care of him when he was first retired. Recently, his breeders, Jeff and Anabelle Begg, stepped up to the plate as well, donating enough that Dawn Watcher is “financially solvent” through 2007. This should give him lots of time to settle into his retirement and give us lots of time to evaluate Dawn Watcher and find him the permanent, loving home he so richly deserves. *Adoption Fee For more info fill out the
