Schosberg Makes Matching TAA Donation

[Wandering Eyes]

Rick Schosberg celebrated his retirement from training by making a pledge to match all donations up to $1,000 to the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance's Holiday Giving Campaign Friday.  After 35 years, 5,973 starts, and over $38 million in earnings, the New York horseman saddled his final runner Dec. 29 at Aqueduct.

“Funding aftercare should be a top priority for every industry participant,” said Schosberg. “The Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance does a great job vetting aftercare organizations to ensure the safety of retired Thoroughbreds, but the industry must envision more unique and creative funding mechanisms to generate more resources for the retirees that have so gallantly kept the sport going. I hope you'll join me in donating today to the TAA's year-end giving campaign.”

The TAA's Holiday Giving Campaign, which began Nov. 29, is scheduled to concluded New Year's Eve.
