Rehome update: We catch up with Frankyboy and Contrast

Rehoming


We love to see our former racehorses enjoying life and there can't be many happier horses than Frankyboy.

Frankyboy, a full brother to our highest rated racehorse Sondad, didn't make it as a racehorse. He was rehomed to live with Alex in South Yorkshire and is having the most wonderful retirement.

"It's Frankyboy's first holiday," says Alex. "It's safe to say he LOVES the beach. He was so well behaved, not a hoof out of line."

You can see Frankyboy's turn of pace in the video as he makes a run through the middle to take the lead and go clear!









Multiple winner Contrast was rehomed in 2025 and he's loving life down in Norfolk. Now looked after by Dawn, he's a regular on the woodland tracks and we can see him here being ridden by Dawn's granddaughter. He lives with another former Mick and David Easterby racehorse called Sneak The Peak down in East Anglia and both are now firm friends.

If you have any video or photographs of our ex-racehorses in retirement please do send them in to us and we'll post them on our website and on Facebook.
