Training
Whitley
Farm offers comprehensive training packages for Point to Point and Hunter
Chasers. We can provide quality, affordable training packages for our
owners with modern, state-of-the-art facilities. Horses in our care
will receive 5 star treatment taking them from the first stages of roadwork
and exercise to eventual race day.
Jump training takes place over point to point fences in our jumps field
or loose schooling in the jumping lane. Owners are always welcome to
visit and watch any aspect of their horses' routine.
The
Equine Swimming Pool is
a valuable asset both as another phase of everyday fitness and also
when all other forms of exercise are impossible, in the event of shoe
loss, injury or adverse weather. This means much fewer days lost during
the season and so many more opportunities to get to the track!
All fast work takes place on our all-weather
gallop reducing the risk of injury and encouraging better condition.
This also means that we are not hampered by the normal problems of suitable
ground and excessive time travelling to work. Young horses quickly learn
their 'job' and are encouraged to work 'up-sides' and be competitive.
We believe that this gives them a head start when they go racing for
the first time.
