Raising athletic horses in optimal conditions is the aim of Tailwind Racing. Foals are either California or Kentucky bred with the Cal-Bred racing market in mind. Stakes horses are the goal.

Under the direction and active management of Ronna Hoffman, President,Tailwind Racing, Inc. has experienced significant growth with a long-term commitment to excellence. In business since 1990, Tailwind Racing began with three horses, boarding and racing in California . In 1998, as the number of horses grew to nearly twenty five, it seemed practical to own our own farm; it would allow us to have greater control over the entire racing operation. With that goal in mind, we purchased a 70 acre property, formerly a dressage horse stable, and converted it to a thoroughbred race horse operation.The entire program of Tailwind Farm has been designed to raise a thoroughbred race horse, not a pampered sales horse. All of our mares and foals are at this optimal high altitude facility. Our yearlings are broken here and are trail ridden. Our two-year olds continue their initial race training on their own on-site track. There is just enough up and down hill to develop strong hindquarters. The two year olds eventually go to California for speed work and to prepare for the track. As we do not have stallions at the farm, our mares are also shipped to California or Kentucky for foaling and breeding. We will from time to time upgrade our breeding stock or try to give horses finished with racing a retirement home.
