Trailer: Inside Equine Minds

Inside Equine Minds by EqPI

We’ve all heard of stories of amazing horses who achieve success against all odds. Take Seabiscuit as an example. He lost his first 17 races. In fact, he was described as laid back, lazy and lethargic. He was only 15 hands tall and had short legs with knobby, crooked knees. Does that sound like a famous racehorse to you? And yet, Seabiscuit was the top money winning racehorse in the 1930’s, even setting a record!
The physical nature and training of a horse is just one component of success. There is also a mental component that has a big impact. Great horse people understand that they must meet both the physical and mental needs of a horse in order for them to reach their full potential. Seabiscuit’s trainer, Tom Smith, took the time to figure out these mental needs for Seabiscuit, which ultimately lead him to a famous and memorable racing career.

While the physical requirements of the top equine athletes are much better understood, information about the mental aspect remains vague and mysterious at best. Join me, Kaitlin Hendry, as I meet with trainers, riders and grooms to dive deep inside the equine minds of the most successful horses in various disciplines. My new podcast, Inside Equine Minds, takes you behind-the-scenes from the horse’s perspective, to learn about how they are trained and managed in a way that strengthens their mental game and fuels their success.
