Mathis plush toy horses, which were available for a $20 donation at Santa Anita Park on last Sunday's opening day, generated a total of $25,000 for the California Retirement Management Account (CARMA) and Thoroughbred aftercare. Opening day attendees also received water bottles or Mathis Mile hats. Mathis and Santa Anita Park have already committed to doing the same promotion next year.

“We're thrilled to have raised $25,000 for CARMA, a non-profit organization that will ensure each racehorse has a bright future after racing,” said Bill Mathis, President of Mathis Brothers.  “Together with the thousands of fans who participated on Santa Anita's Opening Day, Mathis Brothers is proud to have helped put the horse first.”

“We can't thank our fans and Mathis Brothers enough for their tremendous support of Thoroughbred aftercare,” said Santa Anita Senior Vice President and General Manager Nate Newby.  “Each dollar raised from this promotion is going directly to CARMA to support the rehabilitation, retraining and retirement of California-raced Thoroughbreds.”
