Delaware Park and the Delaware Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association have joined forces with CANTER-Delaware (CDE) and Mid-Atlantic Horse Rescue (MAHR) for the annual “End of Meet Showcase,” held at Delaware Park Oct. 13. Approximately 25 to 40 horses will be available for purchase and their trainers will be on hand to answer questions.

“Thanks to Delaware Park, DTHA, CANTER, and MAHR, the annual “Delaware Park Showcase” has been very successful and we want to continue to provide a venue that brings together thoroughbreds and the horsemen and women who love them,” said Lauren Gassaway, CANTER Delaware Executive Director, “We have built great relationships with the horsemen and women at this track and look forward to highlighting their horses that are ready for second careers.”

Bev Strauss of MAHR added, “Again, this event is a great opportunity for local shoppers to find their next sport horse. Because of their athleticism Thoroughbreds have become very popular mounts. They are extremely versatile and perform successfully across the board whether it's dressage, jumping, eventing or pleasure riding.”
