The Moneigh fundraiser program began over 10 years ago by ReRun Thoroughbred Adoption. After the Finish Line has partnered with ReRun to raise funds for both charities. The Moneighs have become known as the official horse paintings of the Thoroughbred racing industry, in part because the name “Moneigh®” is trademarked. Paintings have been created by more than 200 Kentucky Derby, Preakness, Belmont, and Breeders’ Cup racers and winners, Stakes raced horses, and the most popular stallions and broodmares in the country.
What is a Moneigh?
A “Moneigh” is an abstract, water color painting created by a horse. The horses paint with their chin, muzzle and whiskers using non-toxic, children's water color paint. Each horse autographs their painting with his hoof print and we tie a small piece of their hair in a bow and attach it to each painting. They are also autographed by the jockey and trainer. The word “Moneigh” is derived from the name of the famous artist (Monet) and the sound a horse makes (neigh).
