Our responsibility beyond racing
The finish line
is not the end.
Through our relationship with APEX Equine, Thoroughbred Solutions is committed to helping each horse move thoughtfully from racing into the next stage of its life.
A plan for what comes next
Care that continues beyond the racecourse.
A racehorse’s needs do not stop when its racing career does. The right next step depends on the individual horse—its health, temperament, experience and future potential.
APEX Equine’s Adelaide Hills team provides tailored live-in programs, rehabilitation, therapy, off-the-track development and OTT sales support. That breadth gives each horse the opportunity to follow a pathway shaped around what it needs.
Individual pathway
Transition plans reflect the horse in front of us, its history and its prospects beyond racing.
Experienced support
Rehabilitation, therapy and development support are available through the APEX Equine team.
Owners kept informed
Thoroughbred Solutions remains a direct point of contact as the next chapter is considered.
The post-racing pathway
From final run to future role.
No two horses follow exactly the same route. The pathway is considered with the trainer, owners and appropriate equine professionals.
Assess
Consider health, soundness, temperament, experience and the horse’s needs after racing.
Transition
Allow time to let down from the racing environment and establish an appropriate routine.
Rehabilitate or develop
Use tailored care, therapy, groundwork and education where the individual horse requires it.
Find the right next chapter
Explore a suitable off-the-track career and home with long-term wellbeing at the centre.

A shared responsibility.
Post-racing decisions are made horse by horse. Owners will be kept informed about the proposed pathway, the people involved and the practical next steps when retirement is being considered.
Specific arrangements, responsibilities and costs can vary according to the horse’s circumstances and the services required. These are discussed with owners as part of the transition planning process.
Ownership with the whole journey in mind
Race with people who care what happens next.
