QOTT Leaderboard

The Queensland Off-The-Track (QOTT) Leaderboard has been established to highlight Standardbred and Thoroughbred ex racehorses excelling in their new careers.

From much loved paddock companions to the ideal equestrian athletes, there is no limit to their ability and what they can achieve in their lives off the track.

In 2025, the QOTT Leaderboards will continue to recognise and award both OTT Standardbred and Thoroughbred horses separately that have accumulated the highest points in each discipline at events from 1 November 2024 to 31 October 2025. 

To be eligible, OTT horses must be Base or Life Registered with Equestrian Queensland (as per the EA National Rules of each discipline / level of competition).
