Golden Gate Fields is committed to the health and safety of equine athletes both during and after racing. We believe that the entire industry must work together to provide racehorses with the best possible careers both on and off the track. We are proud to assist the efforts of the California Retirement Management Account (CARMA), their aftercare partners, and non-profits accredited by the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance. To learn more about these programs, please visit their websites via the links below.For assistance with Thoroughbred Aftercare, please click the following foundations.
1/ST is committed to the care and safety of the horses who race and train at our tracks and training centers and is equally committed to a horse’s care beyond their racing careers. 1/ST Aftercare Liaisons are dedicated to working with owners, trainers, and accredited aftercare organizations to assist with the safe and productive transition to second careers for horses who are no longer racing.
If a horse is found to be in an unsafe situation, 1/ST Aftercare Liaisons will alert former racing connections and work together to come up with a safe transition for that horse.
