EDUCATION

The Racing SA Track Work Rider Skill Set Program delivered in partnership with our RTO Skillinvest with the support of the Government of South Australia.

The course consists of a 14-week program that includes 2 weeks work experience in a Racehorse Trainers stable.

Riders will gain an insight on how to report on horse performance and health, animal welfare and compliance requirements; learn a new style and techniques; and develop fitness requirements for riding track work.

Students will be riding selected Retired Racehorses, to prepare riders to be job ready by giving them practice and confidence to ride horses at a range of paces and tempos with our Racing SA stable of thoroughbreds.
