Los Angeles philanthropist Sophie Stenbeck has donated $74,000 to the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation, designating the gift "to cover costs for preventive veterinary care, medical treatment for illness and injuries, as well as emergency care, for all horses in TRF's programs for whom vet care is not already sponsored by other donors," according to a retirement foundation release Monday.

"I know the cost of keeping a herd of 1,000 horses healthy," Stenbeck said in the release. "I am happy to provide the TRF these funds so that good care is not an issue."

If these bad people at TRF would stop stealing and skimming there would be more contributions and money coming in. These TRF people all need to be replaced and start over with honest people that care for horses.

So nice of Ms. Stenbeck to take a good clear look at what they need and provide it rather than second guessing intentions. TRF is a great, hard working organization and deserves the assistance.
