LongRun grads Whizmo and Reconfigure get acquainted at Milestone.

Whizmo, unplaced in 8 starts, should have picked up some pointers from Rico during his time at the track, as graded stakes-placed Rico was a very good racehorse, winning 10 of his 41 starts and a little over $400,000.

But regardless of their race records, all of our thoroughbreds deserve a happy and dignified retirement.

✨ Could Spinzar be your next partner? 🐎❤️

Come meet Spinzar at our Graduate Horse Show on Saturday, October 24th, where he’ll be showing off alongside Sam, the talented rider who works with our horses after their racing careers.

These two are quite the sight to behold—but there’s something even more exciting: Spinzar is looking for his forever home and is currently available for adoption.

If you’ve been dreaming of welcoming a retired racehorse into your life, this could be your chance to meet a very special horse and see what he can do in his next chapter.

Come watch Spinzar shine, meet him in person, and see if he might be the perfect match for you. 🐴✨
