RE: [RC] European headgear - Leonard.Liesens

Title: RE: [RC] European headgear

Hi Shelly,
It is a very tiny browband with a transponder attached. there are captors at the finish line, vet-in and vet-recheck. Nice tool, immediate timekeeping.

Meri : Which system did they use in Kentucky? I heard the UAE riders and the 2 spanish riders had a GPS and the progress of each rider could be followed on the VIP tent at the venue. Did you see it?

What are the things on the horses' heads that look like a black biothane =
browband and throatlatch - a GPS? I keep seeing these in the pictures of =
the rides in Europe.
