The Standardbred Association QLD Inc

The SAQ is a non for profit incorporated association that prides itself on the promotion of the versatility of the Standardbred horse in equestrian disciplines other than the breed’s traditional role of harness racing. The association has been going for over 10years and has gone from strength to strength due to the tireless efforts of its members.

Our association is the only QLD Pleasure and Performance horse Association that is a member of the Standardbred Horse Association of Australia Inc which is the main body of the pleasure and performance horse Standardbred associations of Australia.

The SAQ currently runs a horse placement program which was foundered in 2003, and has re-homed over 250 horses since.

Here's a few of the things the SAQ can offer QLD Harness Trainers:

•A second chance for your horses to find their niche in other disciplines aside from Racing.
•The confidence of knowing that your horses have been placed in caring, non commercial homes, with adequate care, knowledge and support from the SAQ.
•Trainers will receive a quarterly report, with photos, and updates about the horses, in their new homes.*
•Copies of vet check paperwork and Certificates, required by the SAQ.*
•Ongoing communication and support between the SAQ, Trainers, and SAQ members/Adopters.

*Conditions Apply

The SAQ has many goals and ideas for the future. We aim to grow our association, and continue to build relationships and rapport with trainers, members, the equine industry and the general public, to allow us to promote Standardbreds as great harness race horses and riding horses.

Here are just some of things we currently offer SAQ members:

•The SAQ Horse Adoption Program
•Sponsorship of Breed classes at Agricultural Shows
•Annual Standardbred State Show (open only to Standardbreds in QLD)
•Organised displays at race meets
•Seminars and information days for our members to attend
•Organised Trail Rides, weekend trips, and other social events
•The SAQ is well established with QLD show societies and agricultural societies as the governing association for registration of pleasure and performance Standardbreds
•The SAQ continues to provide a vehicle for all Standardbred owners to meet and communicate with each other
•The SAQ is actively seeking new opportunities and ventures to further promote the temperament and versatility of the Standardbred.
