Lindsay Park Euroa
In construction is the cutting edge Lindsay Park Euroa property, situated approximately 150km north east of Melbourne, just off the Hume Highway. The property is strategically positioned to target provincial racing in Victoria and southern New South Wales as well as metropolitan races in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide.
The 1200 acre property features 76 stables, 36 indoor/outdoor yards, 32 day paddocks. The training hub includes horse walkers, high speed treadmills, sand rolls, farrier and vet offices. A new 15 horse aquatrainer (water walker) is a great addition to our training armoury.
The aquatrainer is used extensively in pre-training, aids in post-race and post-gallop recovery and allows us to 'freshen up' our horses without them losing fitness. We have nick-named this the 'Boags Water' (after the James Boag's TV ads) for its ability to speed up the recovery from minor niggles. We also have a large dam that will be used to swim our horses.
As well as the existing 1330m uphill Pro Ride track, we have a 1250m Sand Track (used for slow work) and a 1950m Pro Ride Track which is used for fast gallops and trials in all weather. In construction is a 2000m Turf track (on the outside of the Pro Ride) with chutes and starting barriers to allow horses to race and trial in both clockwise, and anticlockwise directions.
Trackwork is viewed from observation huts which enable the trainer to get a close up view of the horses work. The huts are equipped with electronic timing systems and fibre optic cables to allow the recording of gallops.
The on-property spelling grid allows trainers and veterinarian to keep a close eye on the horses while they are spelling to ensure they are in good condition when they resume training and assists in the management of horses with various ailments and injuries.
