Training and Lay Up

Our Training Facility

Horses in training and ready for adoption, are located in either Monterey County, or Orange County, California. TROTT horses get a good foundation of ground work, and when ready, are ridden in the arena as well as on trail by the TROTT volunteers.

Our horses are assessed and trained, and then placed in the best home for their talents.

Pre-screened potential adopters are invited to come and meet all of the horses in training at any given time. You will be able to ride any of them who are under saddle, and meet your criteria.

Our Lay Up Facility

TROTT horses first go to a professional racehorse lay up farm for their R&R. Here they can be assessed and rehabilitated by professionals who have years of experience caring for racehorses. They are in a relaxed and peaceful environment, and they stay happy and healthy while they are preparing for their re-training.

Some are there for just a month or two, and others longer, depending on injuries. Each one is rehabilitated under the guidance of a racehorse vet, so we are assured they are ready to train for their next career.
