The amazing Thoroughbred has always been a staple of the Hunter and Jumper ring. Our finest Warmblood lines all trace back to Throughbred sires and the base of all Show Jumping as we know it in America was founded on Thoroughbred stock.
At Little Bay Farm we’ve had many Thoroughbreds over the years, some of which are shown below. We take pride in the success of our Off The Track Thoroughbreds (OTTBs) and are very glad to see them returning to favor in the show ring. We can help you pick your next TB and start it on the path to its new career.
