As the indoctrination progresses, after a period of time, (and as many of you have undoubtedly seen at the racetrack), a young horse will be walked and jogged with an escort pony to gain confidence towards being ridden alone. Ultimately, the instructor will begin to put the colt or filly through the same paces unescorted and begin track work. With each level of learning accomplished, the horse is introduced to more and more elements of being a racehorse.. the paddock.. saddling.. the starting gate.. etc. There's obviously more to it and intracacies that could be elaborated upon, but I'll leave it to Chuck and Pais if there are questions...

Steve, Thanks for elaborating more on the process. It's one of those things a person may not fully grasp unless he/she is involved in owning a yearling or 2 yr old. Nice job!! |
