Breeding & Owning a Racehorse

These pages are designed to answer those questions on how to go about becoming a Racehorse Breeder or Owner . . .

Below is a brochure called ‘Breeding a Racehorse’, this will give you some handy tips on the logistics of breeding a Thoroughbred.

These pages will also give you an insight into the life of a broodmare for a year. Miss Kirsten Rausing (the owner of Lanwades Stud and Chairman of the TBA ) very kindly allowed us to follow the progress of one of her broodmares, ALL A DREAM, in the 2007-2008 season.
