“I believe that all horses, whether champions or
not, deserve the best possible care. An organization that
shares my belief is the Grayson-Jockey Club Research Foundation.
The purpose of this Foundation is to fund veterinary research
to improve the health and soundness of horses of all kinds.
I encourage you to make a donation or become a Foundation
member simply by paying modest annual dues.”
