In this episode of OTTB on Tap, we reconnect with Lauren Garrett-Bond to see how her giant, chestnut off-track Thoroughbred mare, Tizbit, is progressing on the road to the 2024 Retired Racehorse Project (RRP) Makeover. Joining Lauren is her trainer, Sabrina Morris, an expert in OTTB training with years of experience turning retired racehorses into versatile sport horses.

Sabrina shares her unique insights into training Thoroughbreds, from her days at the racetrack to running Another Round Farm, a facility dedicated to training and rehabbing OTTBs. She has plenty of helpful tips and stories about working with fresh off the track OTTBs, especially those quirky, challenging types that Sabrina loves to train.

Lauren updates us on Tizbit’s latest milestones, the ups and downs of preparing for the Makeover, and how she and Sabrina are navigating the mental and physical demands of getting an OTTB ready for competition. Whether you’re looking for advice on training your own retired racehorse or just love hearing success stories from the OTTB community, this episode is packed with valuable insights.
