Every thoroughbred has a story and traceability is how we make sure that story doesn't get lost along the way. From registration with the General Stud Book to covering certificates, ownership changes and career moves, each stage is a touchpoint.
Miss one, and a gap opens up in the record of where that horse is and who's responsible for it.
The Thoroughbred Breeders' Association (TBA) set out to tackle these data gaps as closing them is a shared responsibility, from the breeder who registers the foal to the owner who takes it on years later.
To help make sense of it all, the TBA has launched a new animatied resource and it's free to view.
