What is Sorrows End Farm?
Located in Northeast Tennessee, Sorrows End
Farm specializes in Thoroughbred training and
sales. Most of our horses for sale are
Thoroughbreds that are retraining off the
racetrack, although some have never raced. Our
goal is to offer ex-racehorses a chance at a
second career after the track.
We also offer horse boarding, training and riding
lessons. Please contact us for rates.

Why an off-the-track Thoroughbred?
Thoroughbreds are by nature very athletic, versatile and intelligent horses. They excel
in numerous careers including hunters, jumpers, foxhunting, dressage, eventing, as
pleasure horses, and more. Thoroughbreds have a wonderful work ethic and strive to
please. They are responsive and willing, and when trained correctly, are excellent
equine partners with lots of heart that will do anything for their people.
Many Thoroughbreds that do not have successful careers as racehorses or are
unable to continue racing due to injury can go on to become excellent show prospects
or pleasure horses.

Our goals and our style
Sorrows End is dedicated to helping
Thoroughbreds that are no longer competitive
racing to learn new careers and find good,
non-racing homes. We train our horses to be
responsive, obedient, and respectful while giving
them time to 'be a horse.'
Our Thoroughbreds are schooled to move forward
quietly in a relaxed, balanced frame. Once they
develop a good forward and balanced gait, we
teach them to move willingly 'on the bit' and to jump.
Our Thoroughbreds are evaluated for suitability and
soundness for their new careers. They have had a
strong basic reschooling under saddle, learned to
work off the aids and are jumping. Sorrows End
strives to produce sound, healthy, happy horses
that are willing and ready to move onto their new
career.

"...And I was riding along,
my heart resounded in the
lawn-dampened steps,
resounded in the snorting and champing
on the bit by my gray,
and a blissful happiness lit up my heart
and I knew:
If I now dropped out of the world,
I would fall into heaven. "
-- Baron von Munchhausen
