MAIN STREET SPONSOR
The Maryland Horse Breeders Association (MHBA) is a statewide organization dedicated to supporting and promoting Maryland’s Thoroughbred breeding and racing industry. Headquartered on Main Street in Reisterstown at the Maryland Horse Library and Education Center, the association provides advocacy, education, and industry resources for breeders, horse owners, and equine professionals throughout Maryland.
MHBA manages programs that support Maryland-bred Thoroughbreds, publishes Maryland Thoroughbred Magazine, maintains industry records, and works with state partners to strengthen the horse racing and breeding economy. Through events, publications, and educational initiatives, the association continues Maryland’s long tradition as one of the nation’s historic centers for Thoroughbred breeding.
The Maryland Horse Breeders Association was founded by a group of horse breeders committed to protecting and promoting Maryland’s Thoroughbred industry. At the time, Maryland was already nationally recognized for producing successful racehorses, and the organization was created to provide coordination, advocacy, and record-keeping for breeders across the state.
Over the decades, MHBA has played a major role in sustaining the state’s equine economy by supporting breeders, maintaining the Maryland-bred registry, and promoting incentive programs that reward the breeding and racing of Maryland-bred horses. The organization later established the Maryland Horse Library and Education Center in Reisterstown, preserving the history of Maryland’s horse industry while providing educational programming and resources for the public.
Today, MHBA continues to serve hundreds of members and remains a central voice for Maryland’s Thoroughbred breeding community while celebrating the state’s rich equestrian heritage.
