Today's Dover Downs Horse Racing Picks

Exercise Rider

A rider built much like a jockey but is employed for exercising and working out horses in the morning.

Blinkers

A hood worn on a horse’s head to limit side vision, which can improve concentration. Blinkers are added or removed to relax a horse or give it more focus.

Bleeder

A horse that bleeds due to a ruptured blood vessel during a race or workout. The medication Lasix can fix this problem.
