[Wandering Eyes]

Tattersalls has donated £50,000 to the Retraining of Racehorses charity for the calendar year 2024. Having supported the RoR as sole sponsor of their popular Showing Series for thoroughbreds since its inception in 2015, the £50,000 Tattersalls contribution reflects a commitment to the Showing Series, but also to the wider work of the ROR whose strategy published earlier this year has been widely praised within the racing and breeding industry.

Commenting on the donation, Tattersalls Chairman Edmond Mahony said, “Tattersalls has been the proud sponsor of the Retraining of Racehorses Showing Series for many years now and the series has always provided wonderful opportunities for thoroughbreds to showcase their versatility and prowess at all levels in the show ring, and show just how much enjoyment they can bring to all those involved with them. We hope that our increased commitment to such an important charity will enable the Showing Series to continue to flourish while also supporting wider RoR initiatives designed to ensure the welfare of former racehorses and increasing awareness of the important role played by RoR. We are delighted that this series has given so many people a reason to enjoy thoroughbred horses outside the traditional sphere of racing.”

David Catlow, Managing Director of Retraining of Racehorses, added, “RoR is incredibly grateful to Tattersalls for this generous support. Their long-standing commitment to the Showing Series has been invaluable, and this additional contribution will have a significant impact on our wider welfare initiatives. Together, we are ensuring that former racehorses are not only cared for but celebrated for their versatility and achievements beyond the track.”
