NEW STANDARDBRED RETRAINING VIDEO

By Felicia Allen

A new video has been produced by the Standardbred Fan Club to show the five simple steps in retraining a Standardbred horse from a pace racing career to a riding horse.

The video includes the initial ground work (teaching voice association), lunging work (developing bending muscles, developing the trot, and teaching the canter), preparation for the first ride, initial riding work and exercise, developing the trot, and canter work.

Three Standardbreds at different levels of training illustrate the various training methods used at each level to develop a fully trained riding horse.
