Life After Racing

Queensland Off-The-Track Program

The Queensland Off-The-Track Program (QOTT Program) has been established to support a high-quality first transition for Standardbred and Thoroughbred horses, bred for the racing industry and domiciled in Queensland at the time of their retirement from racing or breeding activities.

Standardbred Association Queensland (SAQ)

The SAQ aims to increase the demand for retired Standardbred racehorses as pleasure and performance horses and this is being done through the SAQ Standardbred Horse Adoption Program. The SAQ also runs and sponsors many shows, events and clinics; shares the success stories and actively promotes the attributes of the breed.

SAQ is actively educating the community about the various life beyond racing options, the versatility of use, and the appropriate care and retraining of Standardbred racehorses. Read more about SAQ.
