Have you ever gone to the racetrack or to a Thoroughbred auction and thought about how wonderful it would be to own a racehorse? As daunting as the prospect might seem, it’s not out of your reach.

The New Thoroughbred Owners Handbook unravels the mystery by explaining how to find the horse you’re looking for, how to get the help you’ll need, what steps will be required to get your horse to the racetrack and into the winner’s circle, and how much it will cost.

With years of experience working with owners, the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association offers this guide as practical advice for newcomers. Racing parlance is broken down into easy-to-understand language and the intricacies of the game are thoroughly explained. Whether it’s learning to prepare a business plan for your venture into the Thoroughbred industry or filling out a claim form properly, everything that goes along with ownership is explained at a comfortable level.

The New Thoroughbred Owners Handbook also provides state-by-state information on owner’s and breeder’s incentives, purse structures, how long it will take to collect your winnings, and other pertinent and up-to-date information Thoroughbred owners require.
