Pre-training is essential to help your thoroughbred reach its potential and have the best possible racing season. A rigorous thoroughbred pre-training program will involve a dedicated exercise regimen, adapted diet and individual care to improve your horse’s fitness base before a racing campaign.
Depending on what you want to focus on, pre-training can involve improving barrier skills, building fitness, rehab work, teaching balance, dressage training and more. A program will be tailored to your needs and your horse’s abilities.
Here we’ll look at why pre-training is essential to meet your thoroughbred’s maximum potential.
Prepares The Horse For The Rider
Thoroughbred pre-training and prepping will help prepare the horse for its rider. Pre-training will strengthen and balance a horse within itself before adding the rider's weight. This training is important to find your horse’s natural balance. Thereafter, trainers can teach your horse how to naturally carry themselves and build strength that is conducive to carrying a rider.
Provides Suppleness And Coordination
Through walking, trotting and cantering, your horse will further build its balance as well as gain better suppleness and coordination. It’s important that each thoroughbred develops muscle in the right places, which will not only provide strength and stamina but correct balance and coordination.
Increased Fitness
Through the six weeks of pre-training, your thoroughbred will slowly build their fitness level, turning fat into muscle, making them stronger. Pre-training is pivotal in meeting your thoroughbred’s full potential in strength and fitness.
Acceptance Of The Bit
Over the weeks of pre-training, it's an asset for your horse to be trained with individual care, ensuring that the correct mouthing and breaking techniques are adapted to each horse being trained. Acceptance of the bit is an important skill for your horse to have, saving you time and your horse the energy expended on resisting the bit.
