Very informative and welcoming tour. With the mares and foals tour we did not go into the barns but visited them at the pasture fence. The new visitors center building is very comfortable and a great show case of trophies. You don’t need to know who all the racehorses are because the guide does an excellent job of giving their impressive histories.

We spent a wonderful day at Spendthrift Farm, taking both the Shuttle Tour and the Stallions Tour. Kendall was our guide for both tours, and she did a great job of engaging with the group. Her knowledge of each horse and the industry was impressive. Each tour started with a couple of videos giving the history and significance of Spendthrift Farm. They were both well done and informative. On the Shuttle Tour, we were shown much of the farm, and Kendall pointed outthe various horses that were in their paddocks. There were two stops where we could exit the shuttle and greet mares and their weanlings. Many of them were happy to nuzzle your hand and get their noses scratched. It was a highlight of the tour. On the Stallion Tour, we walked to the Breeding Barn. Kendall did an incredible job of explaining the processes involved in getting the stallion and mare together. We then moved on to the Stallions Barns. Several stallions were brought out for viewing, and Kendall gave each one’s history. We were able to view the remainder of the stallions in their stalls. Spendthrift’s lineup of stallions is quite impressive. With the number of young stallions in the barns, they are set to be an influential breeder for quite some time.

We were able to take both a tour of the farm and the stallion barns and Kendall did a great job leading both of these tours. I was impressed with her knowledge of the bloodlines of so many different horses. All of the facilities were top notch and the grounds were beautiful! We enjoyed plenty of interactions with mares and foals and were given lots of great information about the horses and the breeding process that takes place on site. Highly recommend these tours!

My wife and I toured Spendthrift farms in Mid April 2023. The new vistor center is outstanding. Kendall was a great tour guide for Spendthrift farms. She has great knowledge of all horsed and is very professional. She has such a passion for what she does and conveys that to her guests. What a great ambassador. Will definitely recommend this tour to our friends. Thank you.

Saw several stallions, many were champions I remembered from their racing days and reading about in the BloodHorse magazine. Fantastic.

We thoroughly enjoyed visiting Spendthrift Farm. Kendall was an excellent tour guide. The “U” barn is so unique and is the home for some very special stallions. It was pretty awe-inspiring meeting Authentic, Thousand Words, Into Mischief and others. It was the perfect way to begin our KY vacation!
