Synopsis
Wondering if an off the track thoroughbred is for you? Curious about how to bring out the best in your OTTB? Needing advice from professionals who work with thoroughbreds? On the OTTB podcast we cover all these things and more. Hosted by a life long equestrian who has trained multiple off the track thoroughbreds, we strive to interview those that have dedicated their lives and careers to these amazing athletes; to the thoroughbred breed and to promoting a change of careers after their racing careers have ended. Nowhere but in the thoroughbred do we find so much fire and heart mixed with athletic ability. Ability that translates from being a racehorse toan eventer, a jumper, a Dressage horse or barrel racer. Join us for a fun, informative and educational show that all horse lovers and riders can enjoy.
