This two-day clinic is designed for riders who want to better understand their off-the-track thoroughbred and feel more confident about the retraining journey ahead.
Led by Sarah at Pineview Equestrian, the weekend focuses on calm, thoughtful retraining. It’s not about rushing outcomes or fitting horses into boxes, but about understanding the horse in front of you, reading what they’re telling you, and making good decisions along the way.
Across the two days, the clinic will cover:
• Understanding OTTBs and realistic retraining timelines
• Hidden stresses and common racing-related considerations
• Diet and nutrition for retraining and recovery
• Groundwork foundations and lunging with purpose
• Ridden sessions focused on calm, correct basics
• Reading your horse under saddle and riding with intention
• Managing setbacks and plateaus
• Planning the next 6–12 months of retraining
Horse work (groundwork and ridden) will be happening throughout the weekend. Fence-sitters are very welcome and consistently get a lot out of observing, listening and asking questions.
You can attend one day or both days.
Pricing
• Riding participant (BYO horse): $220 per day
• Fence-sitter: $60 per day
Places are limited to keep the clinic calm, supportive and hands-on.
