THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE RRP
The Makeover Champions program was first launched for the 2024 Thoroughbred Makeover and National Symposium, presented by Thoroughbred Charities of America, and invites members of the Thoroughbred racing industry to demonstrate public support for former connected horses who are entered in the retraining competition.

What is a Makeover Champion?
All former connections, including breeders, owners, trainers and stallion farms are eligible to become Makeover Champions for the current year. All Makeover Champions commit to the following:
- Sharing updates (provided by the RRP) about their former connected horses throughout the Thoroughbred Makeover event, October 9-12, 2024
- Share participation in the Makeover Champions program on website and social media platforms
Makeover Champions can also participate in the following optional ways:
- Volunteering at the Thoroughbred Makeover
- Attending the event to meet their former connected horses and their Makeover trainers
- Making a monetary donation in support of the RRP’s charitable mission
