Information
The entire event takes place on specially prepared tracks that are called hippodromes. Rider also has its own professional term - jockey. However, there are requirements for them. First of all, they must be light and not tall, which makes it much easier for them to steer the animal. There are two popular types of races: gallop and trot.
This competition is based on the fact that horses race at the trot, if one of the horses starts to run at the gallop is automatically disqualified.
Almost every race has a money betting session where spectators can bet money on which horse they think will win against the opponent.
