Featured Horse: Summertime Groove

"Groovy" is a great filly with wonderful potential. Standing about 15.2, she would make a great trail or pleasure horse. Groovy retired without any injuries, she was just too slow. In other words, you can make her into anything you desire!

Groovy needs an experienced rider/handler as she is still pretty fresh. She will be started back under saddle soon, so get her and finish her your way. This sweet girl is really looking for a person of her own!

Adoption Donation: $500

Thank You Christine Tutcher!

TROT would like to thank Chris Tutcher for her outstanding dedication to the horses at Spring Lake Equestrian Center.

Chris join us a few months ago for "Bath Day" and has been a loyal volunteer ever since. Even though she did not have a lot of hands-on horse experience, Chris has eagerly visited (almost) every weekend to learn about, photograph, and (most recently) exercise our foster horses. She has cleaned stalls with a smile on her face and braved the Florida heat to just spend time handling these wonderful animals. Chris also enjoys spending time at Tampa Bay Downs during racing season, making her an all-around asset to the Thoroughbred community.

Thank you Chris, for being a friend to TROT and to the retired Thoroughbreds of Tampa Bay Downs.
