Join us on Saturday, Aug. 24, for the Sixth Annual New Vocations Hunter Pace at one of the prettiest farms in the Bluegrass!
Open to all breeds and disciplines, a hunter pace is designed to mimic the feeling of being on a hunt without the hounds. Teams of 2, 3 and 4 riders will travel over a marked course that will include woods, water and open fields. Jumping and non-jumping divisions, family teams welcome and scramble teams available. The team closest to the optimum time (set by officials) without going over will be the winner in each division. Additional great awards also available!
- Jumping, Non-Jumping and Family/Pleasure divisions are open to teams of 2, 3 & 4 riders.
- The team that finishes closest to the optimal time (without going over) will win; ribbons to sixth place will be awarded.
- Jumping teams can jump any height of fence they choose.
- Non-jumping teams ride at hunting pace, but may go around all fences.
Details: Entry forms must be submitted with fees, negative Coggins and waivers. No need to pre-register!
Attire: ASTM-approved safety helmets and shoes with a heel are required.

New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program
New Vocations is proud to be the oldest and largest racehorse adoption program in the country, serving more than 600 retired racehorses a year.
Since our inception in 1992, we've carried out our mission to rehabilitate, retrain, and rehome retired racehorses and placed more than 9,000 in adoptive homes. With nine facilities in Kentucky, Louisiana, New York, Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania, we continue to work with racing owners and trainers in need of aftercare options and with our adopters to find perfect homes for these most-deserving equine athletes.
