LEXINGTON, KY — The Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association (TOBA) will host its upcoming Thoroughbred Breeding Clinic on May 29–30 in Central Kentucky, offering an exclusive, hands-on educational experience for owners and breeders of all levels. With only 40 spots available, the clinic is expected to fill quickly, continuing a strong trend of high demand for TOBA’s immersive educational programming.
This two-day clinic, sponsored by the Florida Thoroughbred Breeders’ and Owners’ Association, provides participants with unparalleled access to leading industry professionals and premier breeding operations in the heart of Thoroughbred country. Attendees will gain in-depth knowledge of breeding practices, including mating decisions, stallion selection, broodmare management, foaling, and early foal development, while experiencing real-world applications at top Central Kentucky equine operations.
Designed for both newcomers and experienced participants, the clinic combines classroom-style learning with behind-the-scenes farm visits, creating a comprehensive and engaging educational environment.
“We are proud to continue offering opportunities like the Breeding Clinic that serve both those already established in the industry and those just beginning their journey,” said Lauren Biddle, Director of Marketing and Education for TOBA. “Education is essential to the long-term success of Thoroughbred ownership and breeding, and these clinics provide a unique, hands-on experience that simply can’t be replicated elsewhere.”
In addition to its educational components, the clinic offers a fully inclusive experience with transportation to farm locations, breakfast and lunch each day, and a cocktail hour sponsored by Hallway Feeds, allowing participants to network and build meaningful industry connections.
Due to the limited capacity and strong interest, early registration is strongly encouraged.
