Re: [RC] Racking horses for endurance? - Patricia Clark

These horses are essentially Standardbreds crossed with racking horse stock. I just started an off the track Standardbred for endurance and he is looking quite promising. He has good recoveries, is sensible, big, long strided and very easy to get along with. He also has a nice trot, rack and pace, which allows for alternating gaits to suit the horse's comfort. I highly recommend Standardbreds! He is only four, so we'll be doing our first LD very soon.

Is anyone using these types of horses in endurance?  If so, I would like to hear from you.
