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

  • Kirby's Ace: We have an update following the accident at Eldorado Scioto Downs on Friday (May 8th): Five drivers were injured. All the horses involved in the accident are OK. Kayne Kauffman suffered a fractured heel. Aaron Merriman suffered five broken ribs, a shattered scapula, and a partially collapsed lung. He is being kept in the hospital for further observation. We will update the status of the drivers' conditions as we know more. We wish everyone involved a speedy recovery.
