Columbus, OH — Standardbreds will be at Horse World Expo, held at the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex, from Feb. 27 through March 2.
The booth and petting stall are adjacent to Breed Row and part of Stallion Avenue located in the Expo Hall (#S13).
“It is important for our industry to keep spreading the word about racing, the breed and second career initiatives like the Standardbred Incentive Program,” said TC Lane, the USTA’s COO. “The USTA is proud to sponsor booths like this so we can highlight our racehorses and what they can do both on and off the track.”
This is the fifth consecutive expo that Standardbreds will be a part of due to Sabine Spring’s dedication as coordinator, along with Ashely Parsells.
