Mr Boycie and his friends have arrived over the last couple of months and we have enjoyed settling them into a new life. They highlight how important charitable work within the racing industry is. Please remember this when you have enjoyed a day of racing, throw some money in the buckets on the way out or even better consider making regular donations. It is so important to support these horses that bring us so much joy after they have finished racing. Spread the word, like and share this post!
Thank you!
Mr Boycie Quest and the RoR
The story of Boycie's admission to HEROS is complex and private and it would be wrong of us to share the details. However, it came to pass that his owner was unable to care for him and an incredible lady stepped in to help.
The fact that he is here is a testament to a huge amount of work done by this lady, Grace and Philippa at Retraining of Racehorses. They negotiated and funded Boycie's transition from a place of uncertainty to a future of stability. Without this support HEROS simply wouldn't be able to help horses in this way and we are proud to work in partnership with RoR, facilitating and championing the safe, effective and timely aftercare of former racehorses🙏
As for our Mr Boycie (below), a stallion we were concerned might turn the place over, he has taken to his new life just fine. Here he is with pro rider Jess on the weigh bridge without a worry in the world. Beautiful? I think so 👌
..and so we continue...
