Equineline and T.I.P. today announced the launch of a new report centered on Thoroughbreds in their second careers. The bespoke report provides information to off-track Thoroughbred owners and those shopping for a Thoroughbred, including pedigree, race record, the last 10 workouts, a list of the horse’s siblings, auction history, and produce record if the subject horse is a mare that has been bred. OTTB Profile (Equineline Report 9OT) is available for $10. For more information, visit https://bit.ly/OTTBProfile or https://tjctip.com/About/FAQ. As a token of appreciation for 14 years of support, the report is offered for free to any Thoroughbred with a T.I.P. number through your T.I.P. account. New T.I.P. numbers will have access to the report 30 days after application. To access the report, log in to your account on the T.I.P. website and click OTTB Report. For questions and assistance with your account, visit the FAQs at https://tjctip.com/About/FAQ.

f you visit Anne Kursinski’s Market Street facility in Frenchtown, New Jersey, you might notice a striking bay gelding with a broad blaze and four white socks being ridden by one of her students or her partner, Carol Hoffman. You might wonder about his breeding—until you remember that for Kursinski, a member of the Show Jumping Hall of Fame, nothing can beat a good Thoroughbred. “I am a huge fan of the Thoroughbreds, no question,” said Kursinski, 65, who famously rode ex-race horse Eros to team silver at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. “Thoroughbreds are intelligent and athletic, brave and light.” The newest Thoroughbred in her life—Bobby Socks, so named in honor of his four white socks—became part of the Market Street family in 2022, after a chance conversation at a horse show between Kursinski and her longtime friend and retired show jumper Mary Chapot.

Lindsay Turcotte didn’t expect that a morning at Century Mile Racetrack in September 2020 would change her whole world, but it did.The racetrack traditionally held a special open house the week of the Grade 3 Canadian Derby to preview the contenders and allow the public to meet the horses’ connections. In the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, the event was open only to owners and trainers, but Turcotte (no relation to Secretariat’s legendary jockey) got an invitation from a friend and came to watch the Derby horses work out at the Alberta track.
