How Have Training Methods Changed
« on: October 20, 2023, 09:41:37 AM »
As an ex-owner it seems that the training of the harness horse must have changed a lot in recent decades. Where the sport used to place a big emphasis on building a horses’s foundation it now has become a sport of very high speed. So what are honest trainers doing differently to rev up their horses to be competitive in today’s racing world?

On young horses, double headers rather than 2 separate trips

  • G: ScrapeThePaint: Mike Petrelli diagnosing harness racing is like a backseat driver using a plastic toy steering wheel to tell the chauffeur how to navigate a blizzard. He acts like he holds the blueprint to standardbred perfection, but the second real trainers walk into the barn, Mike disappears into the shadows—probably trying to remember if a harness attaches to the front or the back of the horse!! THIS HAD ME LMAO!!
