Claiming Crown

 

Claiming Crown is a partnership between the National HBPA and TOBA.

A partnership between the National Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association and the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, the Claiming Crown was envisioned to be the claiming horse owner’s Breeders’ Cup; a special racing event, created for the sometimes-forgotten “average owner,” and featuring some of the most competitive horses in the country. Every horse owner, regardless of the level at which their stable competes, has an equal chance to participate, as the Claiming Crown is open to all claiming horses irrespective of where they were foaled or race.

Claiming horses are the hard-knocking heroes of the turf, having to prove themselves every day the American way: through sweat, muscle, and heart. As the heart, soul, and brawn of American Thoroughbred racing, they are extremely popular competitors. Their stories, and those of their owners, are often easily identified with and appreciated by racing’s fans.

With the Claiming Crown producing competitive, full fields, its races are attractive betting propositions. Adding to the excitement is the “hometown hero” angle, with starters coming from all regions of the country – so called “big” and “little” racing circuits. The local nature of the competitors stimulates regional interest and competition between regions.

FLAIR Strips (Achieve Equine)

FLAIR Strips are self-adhesive strips that promote optimum respiratory health of equine athletes at all levels by reducing airway resistance and providing improved airflow when your horse needs oxygen most. During exercise when horses begin to breathe hard, the soft tissues overlying the nasal passages are sucked in, reducing the airway diameter. This reduction in diameter causes greater resistance to airflow into the lungs. FLAIR Strips gently support the soft tissues over the nasal passages providing reduced airway resistance during exercise. By reducing airway resistance during exercise, FLAIR Strips help prevent fatigue related injuries, help protect the lungs from injury and bleeding and promote optimal athletic performance.
