Is it worth to visit the Ramenskoye racecourse?

Long since the horse was a man's companion in many pursuits. Previously, these beautiful and stately animals were almost in every house, but now they can be seen only in stables and racetracks. One of them will be discussed in our article.

Hippodrome in Ramensky district

Ramensky Hippodrome (address: Civic Street, house 47) is a large complex that contains a three-track racetrack, a podium, fourteen stables, a levad farm, two drivers and a sailor's. All the buildings on the racetrack are heated. In addition, there is a gas boiler in the territory.

Under the maintenance of horses of a sports direction it is allocated eight stables. And for horseback riding there are two spacious arenas. One arena is designed for competitions, and the other is for classes with beginners and children's groups. In addition, riders after two hours of the day can use the third track on the racetrack.

In order to work with riding horses in the summer, the Ramensky Hippodrome acquired several training grounds in the open air. One large parade is designed for competitions and training of professional riders, and another smaller one. On it, as a rule, deal with children, beginners and young horses.

Horseback Riding

As at any racetrack, horse riding is held here. It is worth noting that simple riding and equestrian sport are two different concepts. If a person just came to ride, then he does not need an instructor who would give instructions on how to work with a horse. If a person has a desire to improve their skills in order to continue to participate in the competition, then he must engage in equestrian sports.

At present Ramensky Hippodrome develops two main directions - dressage and jumping. Dressage is a kind of dance on a horse. An inexperienced spectator at the competitions sees only a beautifully running horse and a practically sitting rider. However, behind this are the years of training and joint work of the horse and man.

Competition is the most spectacular and traumatic sport for a rider and a horse. Here the main task of the rider is to jump over obstacles in a given order.

Running at the Ramenskoye Hippodrome

But the main sport for the Ramenskoye racecourse is, of course, trotting. Each month, demonstration tests are organized here, where the best horses are identified. Young horses stand apart from the elders, and mares separate from stallions. This is due to the need to obtain more accurate data for a particular age group of horses.

In general, we can say that Ramensky Hippodrome occupies the leading place in the Russian "equestrian world".

Horseback riding

Usually a person who has never sat on a horse thinks that riding is an easy thing, not requiring the rider to have physical expenses and knowledge. But in practice it turns out that horse management is one of the most difficult skills. Some famous coaches equate him to art.

If you come to the Ramenskoye Hippodrome, you, depending on the physical condition and the skills already available, will pick up the horse. Moreover, you can decide whether you want to just ride a horse or practice horse riding.

In metered quantities, horse riding will be useful. During the ride, both deep and superficial muscles of the spine, as well as the muscles of the legs and hands, will be strengthened. The initial stages of training should be conducted under the supervision of an experienced trainer. This is necessary in order to avoid later improper planting and mistakes in working with the horse.

And be sure that horse riding will develop not only physical endurance, but also such important qualities as concentration and attentiveness.

Other services

The Ramensky Hippodrome carries out school excursions. Here children can get acquainted with the history of the racecourse, with different kinds of equestrian sports and just relax. In addition, on the tour you can see how horses and riders work.

If you want to buy a horse, Ramensky Racecourse is waiting for you. There are always animals for sale - trotting horses, young foals, grown-ups, already worn-out horses. The price will depend on how much the horse is trained. As a rule, the average price of a foal is much lower than the price of a healthy and worn out horse.
