New Stride Banner

New Stride would like to thank the Horsemen’s Benevolence & Protective Association (HBPA) and Great Canadian Casinos for their generous support!

Our Mission

New Stride’s goals are to ensure that each and every noncompetitive and injured Thoroughbred racehorse gets a second chance and is placed into a caring adoptive home. We involve and educate our volunteers in the care, maintenance, handling and retraining of the horses. New Stride provides an alternative to auction for owners who find they can no longer care for their horses.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: All New Stride horses are now offered at a special adoption price of $750!!!

Feature June Featured Horse: Sir Luther ("Luther")

Luther   Each month, New Stride will highlight a different horse in our program.

June's horse is Sir Luther, a 2005 bay gelding. Luther has had 6 weeks professional training from Tom Berry. He would make an excellent trail, pleasure or junior horse and would be an all-round kind and loving family horse.

To find out more about Luther, please visit our Horses for Adoption page.
