Yeah i might show it to the other half and see what he says, darling a new training and exercise aid, absolutely wonderful...............and so cost effective pmsl!
Looks very bulky and a bit odd. I definatly don't agree with exersizing 3week old foals tho! (watched the whole thing) Foals should do nothing but play and grow up, even if their destined to be racehorses.
I have seen the chuck wagon race horse version of this...take one pick up truck, a frame with two bars either side and add your horses, then exercise them.
If anyone has watched the "Half mile of Hell' Documentaries they will have seen this.
I think they look lethal - what happens if a horse panics or trips up?
Plus the fact I would rather get on my horse and exercise it myself rather than paying all that money to have one and then getting a machine to exercise it! (but then the racing world has forgotten that they are animals not machines havent they!!)

Thats unfair. It's the age old saying, don't tar everyone with the same brush. I'm not making a comment on the machine in the video, just the reference to the racing world.
