Weinert 2, Elizabeth Dobis 3 and Karyn Malinowski 2,* 1 Department of Agricultural, Food and Resource Economics, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, 55 Dudley Rd., New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA; [email protected] 2 Equine Science Center, Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, ASB II 57 US HWY 1, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA; [email protected] 3 Northeast Regional Center for Rural Development, Pennsylvania State University, 207A Armsby Building, University Park, PA 16802, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-848-932-9419 Received: 31 October 2019; Accepted: 6 January 2020; Published: 8 January 2020 Abstract: Sustainability is frequently defined as the need to place equal emphasis on three societal goals: economic prosperity, environment, and social equity. This “triple bottom line” (TBL) framework is embraced by practitioners in both corporate and government settings. Within agriculture, the horse-racing industry and its breeding component are an interesting case study for the TBL approach to local development. The sector is to some extent a “knowledge industry”, agglomerating in relatively few regions worldwide. In the USA, choices made by breeders or owners are likely affected by sudden changes in specific state policies, especially those related to gambling. Both of these unusual conditions—for agriculture at least—have been playing out against a background of national decline in the number of registered racehorse breeding stock. This study traces changes, between 1995 and 2017, in the geographic distribution of registered Thoroughbred and Standardbred stallions.

  • A Delicate Balance: the Future of Horse Racing and the Preservation of the Equine Industry, Agriculture and Open Space in the Garden State 1
    A Delicate Balance: The Future of Horse Racing and the Preservation of the Equine Industry, Agriculture and Open Space in the Garden State 1 Karyn Malinowski, Ph.D. Dean of Outreach and Extension Programs, Rutgers Cooperative Research and Extension Director of the Equine Science Center, New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station Forward One of the largest industries in the United States revolves around horses, which make a daily impact on the lives of one in every 60 American citizens. The “Force of the Horse” as stated by the American Horse Council (1996) means more than the economic importance and the $102 billion value of the United States horse industry (American Horse Council Foundation, 2005). Horses and the industries that surround the animal are an integral part of the history and development of human kind, and millions of people world-wide actively participate in equine- related activities through occupations, recreation and sport. Horses have a vast societal impact and are responsible for improving the quality of life for millions of Americans by preserving open space, providing outdoor sport and recreation, building a solid foundation for youth development, and providing mental and physical therapy to adjudicated youth and handicapped persons (Malinowski, 1999). Today the horse’s role in American society is different than it was in the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. Because of the American horse owners dedicated commitment to their animals, horses today enjoy a higher standard of living, increased longevity, productivity, and quality of life. More than 4.6 million Americans are involved in the horse industry. The industry is vast and highly diverse, combining the rural activities of breeding, training, and housing horses with more urban activities such as racing, horse shows and competition stadiums and grounds, and public stables.

  • The Horse Racing Industry in Delaware 2018
    11/2/18 The Horse Racing Industry in Delaware Mark Davis A Little History on the Sport } Horse racing is one of the oldest of all sports, and its basic concept has undergone virtually no change over the centuries } 12th Century (1101 to 1200) - The origins of modern racing began in this century when English knights returned from the Crusades with swift Arabian horses. } 1530 - The earliest records of racing in England are recorded at York. Ten years later, Chester had its first race course. } 1665 - British settlers brought horse racing to the New World, and the first American track was laid out in Long Island. } 1750 - American horse breeders and racers establish the Jockey Club. To d ay, the club still defines standards and regulations for racing, racecourses and breeding 1 11/2/18 More } In 1788 the great sire Messenger was brought to America where he stood at stud for 20 years. One of his sons, Hamiltonian, became the father of the American Standardbred breed of harness racing horses. In the United States, every Standardbred horse can trace its heritage to Hambletonian, born May 5, 1849, in Sugar Loaf, N.Y. } 1864 - John Hunter, William R. Travers and former American heavyweight champion John Morrissey had a track built at the popular summer health resort in Saratoga Springs. The inaugural meeting was conducted, and America’s oldest stakes race. } Late 19th century (1890-1900) - Frenchman Pierre Oller developed the pari-mutuel wagering system, In pari-mutuel wagering, people bet money on a specific outcome, and all of the bet money is placed into a pool.
