I have been using E-Trakka from the very early days of my training career, some 20 years ago! I was lucky to become friends with founder Andrew Stuart and delighted to be involved in a small way in the development process…. E-Trakka was a large part of teaching myself how to train!

Top 3 benefits –

1) QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS – so much of training is subjective and there are so many variables – having access to quantitative analysis to complete the picture is an absolute MUST! Any trainer can clock sectionals, listen to rider feedback, but to see what the cardiovascular system is doing at the same time is invaluable – Heart rate and stride length analysis and the bigger picture it shows has been paramount in my training process.

2) STRIDE LENGTH MEASURES AND HR TRENDS (Max HR and recovery)

Two variables that can really red flag an issue and highlight latent ability or lack thereof! Some horses have a motor and need time, others lack that scope – Time is money, and making good decisions about which horses to be patient with is paramount to making good decisions about training methods AND what horses to keep, what to move on. Absolutely critical information.

3) ECG CAPABILITIES

Red flagging fibrillations and issues is a must – you would be none the wiser without this technology

Why would I recommend the E-Trakka to other trainers? Because Knowledge is power – knowing your horses strengths, weaknesses and training them to the minute is the job description! Use the best tool available to do so!! I have used E-Trakka to identify shin soreness, joint issues, tying up, heart arrhythmias – allowing me to prevent potentially catastrophic issues as part of my daily routine…. I have also found hidden gems in horses that may not have unearthed without this information. And I have managed to keep some of my best horses sound and fit into their senior years of competition thanks to E-Trakka

What is my favourite feature?

ECG red flag – HOW GOOD!
