The Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance (TAA) is teaming with California Retirement Management Account (CARMA) at the Breeders’ Cup World Championships November 1-2 at Santa Anita Park, in Arcadia, Calif., to promote awareness of Thoroughbred aftercare.

The two aftercare organizations will be providing wristbands for fans to wear to show their support for retired Thoroughbreds.

Breeders’ Cup attendees can pick up the aqua-colored wristbands at the TAA and CARMA booth located by the fountain near the south entrance to Santa Anita.
