Horse racing, the Sport of Kings, is thought to have first got up and running on U.S. soil in 1665 in what is now the state of New York. That’s only one year after the Brits first annexed Manhattan from the Dutch. Early races were between two horses and riders on the roads of towns.

The sport has evolved in Europe and all over the world and today the U.S. Triple Crown, a concept of three races originating in England in 1853, features the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and Belmont Stakes and is one of the most watched horse racing events on the planet; the Derby alone has had television viewing audiences of over 16 million.

If you’re interested in working with thoroughbred racehorses or quarter horses, as a career, or interested in horse racing as a fan or punter (one who places bets on racehorses), you might be interested to know something of how a horse is trained along the way into becoming a 1000 to 1200 lb. racing machine.
