New Vocations seeking breedings for Stallion Auction

Lexington, Ky – Dec. 3, 2024 – New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program is currently organizing its 27th Annual Stallion Auction to be held via OnGait.com Feb 4-6, 2025. The Standardbred Transition Alliance accredited charity offers retiring racehorses and broodmares a safety-net through rehabilitation, retraining, and placement in carefully screened and monitored homes.

New Vocations embraces racing and the excitement and joy of racehorse ownership. At the conclusion of a horse’s racing career, New Vocations stands ready to assist with its aftercare needs. “We rehabilitate the horses, break them to ride and care for them until a qualified adopter can be found,” said Executive Director Dot Morgan. “Then we educate the adopters on the characteristics of racehorses, answer myriads of questions, encourage them through problems and offer training guidelines. New Vocations adoptees may be returned at any time, for any reason throughout their life.”

The stallion auction is New Vocations’ most important Standardbred fundraiser of the year and a perfect opportunity for stallion owners to show their support of aftercare. If you don’t have a breeding to offer, please consider a monetary donation.

To donate a breeding, please email dot@horseadoption.com or call (937) 205-4667. Monetary donations can be made through the website at www.NewVocations.org or sent to New Vocations, 719 Dolan Lane, Lexington KY 40511. To maximize advertising, breedings need to be received by January 8; however, breedings will be accepted right up until the auction and throughout the spring.
