Horse Racing

A race is a competition of speed in which the participants struggle to win, usually races are about running but in the case of horse racing, they involve riding.

There are three types of horse racing:

·         Flat Racing: is the most common horse racing, that is ran over an oval track, usually the horses that compete in this type of racing are thoroughbreds. Great Britain is the most common place where it takes place.

·         Steeplechasing: it is an obstacle race in which the horses need to jump or dodge the barriers. This kind of races usually takes place in Canada, Australia and Ireland.

·         Harness Racing: it is a form of horse racing in which the horses race at a specific gait. They usually pull a two-wheeled cart called a sulky.

Of course to participate on a horse racing you will need to train your horse and here is when Horse Whispering techniques become really useful for you. The conditioning program for the different horses varies depending on the race length, so before you start training your horse you should consider this factors and techniques in order to have a completely and successful training.

It is really important that you achieve a well-trained horse to compete, because there are a lot of risks and dangers in horse racing, the most common accident that occurs during a race is that a horse can stumble and fall exposing both jockey and horse to be hit and trampled causing severe injuries or even death in both of them.
