The Standardbred Fan Club is for anyone who loves the breed! The Standardbred posseses integrity and a strong work ethic no matter what the task The beauty of Standarbreds - apart from their outer and inner beauty ofcourse! - is the incredible versatility that Standardbreds possess. You will see them in dressage, jumping, eventing, western, equitation, trotters, pacers, endurance, parades, police work, search and rescue work ... and as adorable, reliable, trustworthy and noble pets (or as we prefer to say, extended family!). Standardbreds are Winners often too! The Standardbred Fan Club is comprised of people who have Standardbreds, are interested in the breed, want to make friends with other Standardbred owners or fans, and anyone from anywhere in the world! At present, the Club runs out of Epona Stable located in British Columbia, Canada. Standardbred on duty!
