Thursday’s Horse: Lewis’s Turn Each week, the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation will feature a retired racehorse looking for a sponsor. This week’s deserving retiree is Lewis’s Turn. Lewis was on his way to slaughter when he refused to be ignored by a TRF representative who visited the farm of a slaughterhouse middleman in the hopes of rescuing Thoroughbreds. “He kept following me around, and nudging me in the back with his nose,” recalled the TRF’s Phil Klein, “like he was saying `take me. Take me!’ He was the first one on my van.” Lewis now lives out his days at a TRF satellite farm in central New Jersey, sharing a spacious paddock with his best friend and fellow TRF rescuee Renaissance Bob. Lewis raced for two years on the Mid-Atlantic circuit, winning just one race, and while pasture sound (and as sweet as a puppy), his injuries prevent him from being a riding horse. For just $3 per day, you can help us give him a lifetime home by becoming his sponsor. Simply e-mail [email protected], or call the TRF at 800-728-1660. To see other horses available for sponsorship, click here, for adoption opportunities, click here or visit www.trfinc.org. For Lewis’s lifetime pps, courtesy of brisnet.com, click here.
