(Edited NTRA release)

The National Thoroughbred Racing Association's Safety and Integrity Alliance has received a contribution of $15,000 from the American Association of Equine Practitioners.

"The American Association of Equine Practitioners and its foundation are proud to support the work of the NTRA Safety and Integrity Alliance in its efforts on behalf of Thoroughbred athletes," said David Foley, executive director of the AAEP.

"The AAEP’s generous contribution to the Alliance is yet another example of the organization’s devotion to the wellbeing of equines everywhere," said Alex Waldrop, president and CEO of the NTRA.

In April of this year, the Alliance received a $50,000 leadership contribution from Pfizer Animal Health.
