Lexington, KY — New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program would like to thank Burke Racing Stable, Weaver Bruscemi, Howard Taylor and Adam Bowden for once again committing a percentage of their Breeders Crown earnings to Standardbred aftercare efforts.

“The Breeders Crown raises a lot of money for a variety of charities, but none of them is for our horses,” said Mickey Burke Sr. “I want to challenge everyone who is fortunate enough to have a horse racing in the Breeders Crown to pledge a small percentage of their earnings. It can be any amount, just make the commitment. It’s important to give back to the horses that support us!”

“We are ever grateful to the owners, trainers and drivers that support this fundraising effort,” said Executive Director Dot Morgan. “Every dollar raised goes to rehabilitate, retrain and rehome retired Standardbred racehorses.”

Please contact Dot Morgan at 937.205.4667 or dot@horseadoption.com, or Winnie Nemeth at 734.320.7919 or winnie@horseadoption.com with your pledge percentage or flat amount, and we’ll conveniently invoice you a few weeks following the race. Donations can also be made at NewVocations.org.
