Roles Of A Racehorse Trainer

By Lena Stephenson


Horses are strong animals that aid in making human work faster. They are fast and can carry heavy loads. Hence, they make tasks more conveniently done especially in farms. In the past, humans have made interactions with these amazing animals. They have been used as the rides for warriors in the ancient times during battles between different kingdoms.

Horses are fast and can make human work a lot faster when they are around especially when it comes to transporting heavy things. They are even trained for racing which is one of the oldest pastimes of Westerners. It is a huge challenge for a racehorse trainer to tame, take care, establish connection, and train this animal.

The main task of a trainer is to make sure that the animal gets the proper diet and nutrition to achieve a conditioned body fit for special speed, agility, and endurance trainings. The equines are known to be athletic animals and with adequate training, they can actually go over their natural speed.

Most of these trainers are believed to be horse whisperers. It is incredible how they can actually make these animals follow them and be loyal to them. They are also responsible in keeping these animals healthy making sure that they get veterinary attention when needed. It helps if the trainer is an experienced veterinarian as well but this is not necessary.

In addition, they make sure that the equine is in perfect condition prior to any race activities. It helps if they are familiar with the anatomy of the equine so that they will have an idea how to immediately respond if there are unexpected falls. In emergency scenarios, they must also know how to do first aid to the horse.

Another task of the trainer is to cooperate with the owners and to give them the update they need regarding the condition of the horse. They can provide the needs of the equine financially so he or she must make sure that the necessities are complete by coordinating with the owners. This is a must.

The importance of socializing them is that this will allow them to be comfortable in crowded places. The tracks are surrounded with hundreds or even thousands of spectators, so they should not be wary of humans and other equines. These animals can get really stressed and the trainer must be aware of that more than anything else.

There are needed certifications in the field of horse training. The government makes sure the animals are handled with care accordingly. If the training professionals are not certified and do not have the license, they will not be allowed to continue even if they have a gift of horse whispering. Certifications will also make the fee higher so it is also beneficial to get a certification and a license.

Therefore, in order to make it big in the profession, certifications are needed as well as the license to train. The state will not allow anyone who is not skilled enough to handle equines to participate in the training process. The best responsibility in this profession is to make sure that the horse is loved.
