Question
Hi there ..
i am a track rider and i am around 100kg..
in your opinion do you thing this would be improving the horses perfomance..
(flat horses)
heavy track rider and on race days light jockey..
does this work..


Answer
hi, well i have used exercise boys weighing up to 175lbs and as long as the horses were sound , i could see no problem  using them to gallop the horses. long slow gallops are very good for the horses and the extra weight would not hurt them at all. hope this helps you  thanks  ED HESS
