When you visit the Secretariat Center, you’ll discover what it takes to transition a former racehorse into a new career. You’ll gain firsthand insight into the dedication and skill involved in preparing these athletes for their next chapter. Experience the rewards of retraining and rehoming America’s treasured Thoroughbreds—and maybe even find yourself falling in love with some of our adoptable horses.

Our tours are perfect for all ages, and photos are encouraged! Tours take place rain or shine, though in the event of severe weather, we may reschedule with a rain check. To book your tour, please visit Horse Country.

During the tour, you’ll get a hands-on, up-close experience as you explore our facilities, meet our Available Horses, and observe a mounted or unmounted training session. Connecting with retired racehorses firsthand is a powerful way to understand why aftercare is vital to the Thoroughbred industry. You’ll see their versatility, athleticism, and trainability in action through personal interactions and demonstration rides at the Secretariat Center.
