In the second half of our conversation, Tom and Clare Mansmann of Pacific Farms in Hume, VA, share their expertise on advanced OTTB care and their innovative approach to rehoming Thoroughbreds. Topics include farrier and hoof care essentials such as managing expectations, X-rays, glue-on shoes, and hoof boots. They also address common challenges like ulcers and the physical transformations OTTBs experience while transitioning to their new lives.
A key highlight of this episode is their Train to Own program, a revolutionary OTTB reselling model designed to create lasting horse-and-rider partnerships. Tom and Clare explain how this program evolved from years of helping clients rehome horses and why it’s become a cornerstone of their mission at Pacific Farms.
The episode concludes with their best advice for first-time OTTB owners and touching stories of a few remarkable horses who left lasting impressions.
