Is the article about the running of the 2023 Kentucky Derby a platform to propagate deaths of horses and the failings of this industry. There's much more missing from this article which is directly associated with the race and should be added. There is a mention of the scratching of Lord Miles which I feel is acceptable but the rest questionable. Brudder Andrusha ( talk) 19:49, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
Gentry Brothers Farm was (still is?) a Thoroughbred racing and training stable owned by brothers Robert and Bruce Gentry. Should we keep this article?

I've started an article for Paddington in template format. Seems no one wanted to do this even after 4 Group 1 wins. ;) I let the folks who follow British racing to continue updating. Cheers. 15:53, 9 August 2023 (UTC) Brudder Andrusha ( talk) 15:53, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
I've started a talk page discussion to change the name of the article above to Whitney Stakes. I believe there is no reason to have a (NYRA) at the end of that title, as there is only one Whitney Stakes. It's my opinion there is no need for disambiguation, and the current naming is not consistent with the names of other horse racing stakes articles. I started a move discussion because I'm not sure whether or not the change would be uncontroversial. JRHorse ( talk) 12:16, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
An editor has requested that Silver Train be moved to Silver Train (horse), which may be of interest to this WikiProject. You are invited to participate in the move discussion. Aoeuidhtns ( talk) 14:48, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
I've submitted Fleetwood Park Racetrack to WP:FAC. I wrote it more from the Bronx history side than from the horse racing side, but it may be of interest to people here. In particular, it could use some additional reviews for FAC. Thanks for taking a look. RoySmith (talk) 17:05, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
I have just updated the colours for Prix du Cadran and have ended up with two lines across the image of the third place colours. I cannot work out where they come from. Any ideas? Southdevonian ( talk) 11:37, 1 October 2023 (UTC)
Can some admin from our European group looking into the edit war between Billsmith60 and a new contributor LALTBBPITP in the article about Auguste Rodin dealing with the introduction? Brudder Andrusha ( talk) 16:40, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
A debatable issue arose after the recent Breeders' Cup where many articles were updated with regard to the infobox of a thoroughbred. The discussion is on the Inspiral (GB) Talk page, the winner of the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf and deals with what is placed in the section Major wins. Brudder Andrusha ( talk) 05:02, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Blood-Horse magazine List of the Top 100 U.S. Racehorses of the 20th Century#Requested move 21 November 2023 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. Kiwiz1338 ( talk) 04:12, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
Hello all. I just created Desert Hero (my first racing horse article) and I was wondering if someone more experienced here on racehorse articles could look over the infobox and see if everything is in order please? I think additional info is available in the Racing Post source. The C of E God Save the King! ( talk) 16:08, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

The article Haskell Invitational Trophy has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Not a notable trophy. Lacks sufficient citations, does not appear to have suitable sources, and does not adhere to a neutral point of view. Had considered merging the content into the Haskell Stakes article, but again, there's nothing verifiable that I can find on this subject.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone might help to make improvements to the article about this year's Oaks and Derby-winning trainer. It appears to be in need of lots of cleanup and copy edits, not to mention that there have also been some COI issues raised on that page in the past. JRHorse ( talk) 11:57, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
