The Racehorse Sanctuary

For a life after racing 🐎 We love to give these beautiful horses forever homes after retirement or injury. Sadly lost our old acct, please give us a re-follow!

Last Thursday we were delighted to welcome Sheila and Louise all the way from Tunbridge Wells! They sponsor Sir Cozzie and Snowdrop, and as always its a pleasure to see them both. The horses just love being made a fuss of (and the mints 😂)

@KateBarrettTBM Thank you x

It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Eastern Scarlett aka Harry, seen here giving Christina a cuddle. Sadly, he suffered complications after a severe bout of colic. Such a sweet-natured, gentle little horse and a great favourite with everyone.

It is with much regret that we announce the postponement of our Fontwell Charity Raceday due to take place on 19th October 😢 The decision to postpone this important fundraising event was not taken lightly, and we share the disappointment felt by our supporters.
