The Thoroughbred Racing Initiative (TRI) has been launched to oppose Florida’s decoupling bills, which threaten the future of live horse racing by allowing Gulfstream Park to retain its gaming license without conducting races. Led by industry figures like David O’Farrell and Mark Casse, TRI aims to unite the Thoroughbred industry and provide funding to fight anti-racing legislation (HB 105/SB 408).

TRI also plans to expand its advocacy beyond Florida to protect the industry nationwide.
