At the National Horseracing College, we're incredibly lucky to be home to more than 50 former racehorses at any one time (and our lovely racing ponies of course!), and the majority, barring just a few, have run on racecourses throughout the UK and even internationally. From those who have enjoyed long and successful racing careers to those who have more recently joined us, every horse has a story of their own. Some have been part of the college for over a decade, while others have settled into the routine in no time at all. Today, these fantastic horses play an invaluable role in helping us train the next generation of racing professionals. They help aspiring racing grooms, work riders, and jockeys develop their riding skills, give learners valuable hands-on experience and play a huge part in preparing people for careers in horseracing. We wouldn't be able to do what we do without them, and we're so grateful to have such wonderful horses as part of our college family 💜 To every horse, past and present, thank you for everything you do! Meet our wonderful horses ➡ bit.ly/NHCHorses #horseracing #lovetheracehorse #racehorse
