industries we work withAt the heart of every simulator we design is a clear purpose: training that benefits both horse and rider. While our products are adaptable across the entire equestrian world, they are all built around the same core principles — safety, effectiveness and ethical riding. By shifting key aspects of training from the arena to the simulator, Racewood not only safeguards the wellbeing of horses but also drives accessibility and sustainability across the sport.
From elite competition and rider rehabilitation to education, leisure and equine therapy, our simulators deliver deeper rider understanding while supporting the wellbeing of the horse. This makes them a valuable asset across all disciplines and experience levels. Our customer base reflects this wide impact. In addition to Racing Schools and Equestrian Centres, we proudly supply simulators to a diverse range of sectors. Scroll below for just a few examples of where and how our simulators are being used: |
