🐎 Want to better understand your ex-racehorse’s behaviour?
📣 Join our free webinar: Tonight 11th June at 7pm

Why do some ex-racehorses settle quickly into life beyond racing, while others find the transition more challenging?

Join certified equine behaviour consultant Justine Harrison on Thursday 11 June at 7pm as we explore the factors that can influence behaviour, including management, routine and environment, and look at some of the common challenges owners encounter when retraining and rehoming former racehorses.
Drawing on the science of behaviour and learning, Justine will help owners better understand their horses and the reasons behind certain behaviours, providing practical insights that can support a successful transition beyond racing.

💚 Can't make it on the night? Register anyway and we'll send you the recording.
