Plan now to be a part of this Grand Event.

The races will be held at the Lexington Marriott Griffin Gate (LBS Host Hotel) and will have appetizers, a cash bar, and race wagering windows.
 
Saturday, the event takes an educational turn with a tour of the Hagyard Equine Medical Institute. This tour and Q&A event will provide valuable information for both the seasoned and rookie breeders and owners.Space will be limited and reservations will be required. Reservation information will soon be provided.
 
The highlight of the weekend is the Limited Breeders Stallion Service Auction.  We will head over to the Fasig Tipton, located at 2400 Newtown Pike, Lexington, Kentucky 40511, for the 2023 AHHS Annual General Membership meeting and the Grand Event Luncheon and Stallion Service Auction. Ticket information for the luncheon will be provided in the near future.
