🎙 Preview: OTTB Training Diaries: Saddles, Setbacks & Small Wins – Go Green’s April Update


Listen Later

We’re back with another OTTB Training Diaries update following Niamh’s journey retraining her off-track Thoroughbred, Go Green (Oscar), for the 2025 Retired Racehorse Project Makeover.

In this sneak peek of our April recap, we talk about the ups and downs of bringing along a sensitive young Thoroughbred—starting with Niamh’s creative fundraiser for the RRP, some minor training setbacks, and the realities of managing an OTTB’s conditioning, saddle fit, and emotional development in the early months after track life.

To hear the full OTTB training episode—including groundwork exercises for competitive trail, parasite management tips, saddle shopping struggles, and a behind-the-scenes look at Oscar’s obstacle course field trip—join us on Supercast! We also answer listener AMA questions about OTTB training schedules, growth-related lameness in young Thoroughbreds, and how non-horsey significant others fit into barn life.
