Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 6 hours ago Journalists Share Posted 6 hours ago The Jockey Club will invest more than $6 million to support initiatives such as equine safety and aftercare, industry growth, promotion of the sport, education, and national and international collaboration as part of its Industry Impact Report released Wednesday. “We are proud of the many initiatives we support and that The Jockey Club's mission has not wavered in more than 130 years,” said The Jockey Club's President and COO James L. Gagliano. “It is so encouraging to see how many other organizations are committed to improving and growing Thoroughbred racing, especially in the areas of welfare of our athletes and promotion of our sport.” As the Thoroughbred breed registry for the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico, The Jockey Club Registry is a not-for-profit organization with the primary responsibility of maintaining the American Stud Book to ensure the integrity of the breed. Funds from nearly all registry-related transactions are directed toward Thoroughbred aftercare initiatives. In addition, in line with its mission of being dedicated to the improvement of Thoroughbred breeding and racing, The Jockey Club's for-profit subsidiaries and partnerships (TJC Innovations (The Jockey Club Information Systems, InCompass Solutions, and The Jockey Club Technology Services) and Equibase Company) serve the industry with technology services and products, and the profits they create are dispersed back into the sport.
