2 The TAA is an INDUSTRY UNITED INITIATIVE The non-profit 501(c)(3)Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance accredits, inspects and awards grants to approved aftercare organizations to retrain, retire and rehome Thoroughbreds using industry-wide funding. 1

3 FOUNDED IN 2012 BY INDUSTRY LEADERSHIP The TAA was formed by leading entities within the sport, with the goal of becoming an industry-wide initiative. Since our founding, stallion farms, owners, trainers, breeders, and racetracks have united to support aftercare as an industry. The TAA is the essence of credibility for our sport. With the TAA the Thoroughbred industry can say in clear conscience that in fact we are taking care of these athletes after their competitive years in racing are finished. TAA President and Darby Dan Owner, John Phillips 2

8 THE TAA FUNDING Since its inception and initial funding, the TAA has diligently sought to meet the challenging demands of aftercare for our athletes. We have broadened our donor base and developed numerous innovative efforts to increase the much-needed financial support of our partners. Since 2012, the TAA has granted over $10.8 million to 64 accredited organizations, with more than 180 facilities across the United States and Canada. The demand greatly exceeds our ability to meet our requests for support. We will continue to explore ways with our industry stakeholders to address the funding needs of aftercare. 7

10 THE TAA FUNDING MODEL More than ever, public sensitivity to the question of what happens to Thoroughbreds after racing is strong and increasing. If unanswered it could be ruinous. The TAA is a legitimate and effective response. The TAA is not a charity, it is more of an insurance for your business, protecting our livelihood, our passion, our sport. Without the support of sustainable funding from key industry stakeholders, such as our stallion farms, racetracks, horsemen s groups, sales companies, owners, trainers, foundations, sponsors, supporters and more, the TAA would not exist. The TAA funding is provided by the generosity and mindfulness of our industry stakeholders dedicated to accredited Thoroughbred aftercare. 9
