What do Horse Racing Trainers Do?
Horse racing trainers are people (or can now be partnerships) who are responsible for preparing horses for professional horse races.
This process involves creating a training program for each horse in their care, supervising and recommending a daily diet and exercise regimen and rest strategy. A trainer will also plan the best horses for the horse to target, in consultation with the owners.
A trainer will also hire a wider support team of staff; this can vets, jockeys, farriers, grooms, and more, to assist with the care and preparation of the horses so they reach their maximum ability.
