Gulfstream Park has established the Barbaro Foundation, which will oversee an annual scholarship program for future veterinarians.Details of the foundation and its scholarship program will be released at a later date, Gulfstream Park General Manager Bill Murphy said.

“The sacrifices of owners Roy and Gretchen Jackson, and…their colt’s contribution to the sport, and the courage of all involved, have been inestimable,” Murphy said. “The Barbaro story went beyond racing. It held us all in its grip for eight months. On behalf of Magna Entertainment Corp. and Chairman Frank Stronach, we at Gulfstream Park will proudly honor the people who tried so hard to create a better ending than the one we received.

“The entire Barbaro team—the Jacksons, trainer Michael Matz, jockey Edgar Prado, the veterinary staff and his fans throughout the world—deserve recognition after this experience.”
