Re: [RC] Racking horses for endurance? - Nancy Sturm

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.


This is one of my favorite non-Arab breeds. Ours had a resting heart rate of 26 when we were conditioning him. As for racking horses, I've done a bunch of LD's on a Tennessee Walker whose primary gait is rack. I'm sure he could do endurance if my old broken-up body would.
