Racetrack Exercise Rider
License Description A racetrack exercise rider must be able to deal with, and if possible correct habits or problems of the horse. Riders conduct general training of the horse to: relax, pace, use himself correctly, and rate his energy. Exercise riders teach the horse to maneuver in race situations (e.g. use the spaces that open up during the race). They get the horse used to possible conditions of the track during the race (e.g. accept dirt in the face). They teach a horse how to approach the gate and to break from the gate alertly when asked. The rider must gauge a horse's fitness and relay this information to the trainer.
