Aquis Launch OTT Racehorse Young Trainer Program Competition

Media Release - Thursday February 14

A once in a lifetime opportunity for a young horse person with animal welfare at heart to run their very own profitable OTT program.

The competition winner could also win the $5,000 Aquis Champions Tour OTT Re-Trainer Bonus in 2020 at the Aquis Champions Tour if the re-trained horse wins a class under its new owner.
