Horses can begin steeplechase careers at age 3. Most steeplechasers competed (or still compete) on the flat. The ideal steeplechaser has speed, stamina, smarts and enough athletic ability to run and jump at the same time. In general, steeplechase horses are larger than their flat counterparts, but size is not a rule. Big horses tend to have more stamina, which is important. Also, horses trained for steeplechasing develop larger muscles across their backs to help with the jumping. The best jumpers clear the fences in one long stride much like a human hurdler jumps in track and field events. Almost all steeplechase trainers are based on private farms, where horses enjoy the outdoors while exercising and working toward their next racing date. It is not unusual to see steeplechase horses compete until age 10 and beyond. At age 14, timber horse Young Dubliner won three races in Steeplechase horses typically run six to eight times in a year. The season features no racing in January and February, plus a light summer schedule assuring horses of lengthy vacations. Most down time is spent outdoors in fields. A steeplechase horse in the off-season is often dirty, hairy and happy. After their steeplechase careers end, horses often become foxhunters, show horses or simply pleasure rides for their owners or trainers. Hall of Famers Flatterer and Zaccio found second lives as a dressage horse and a foxhunter, respectively.

20 Safety: Always a Top Priority The National Steeplechase Association places its highest priority on assuring the safety of steeplechase athletes, both equine and human. The National Steeplechase Association, its race meets and its horsemen undertake significant actions to assure a racing surface of the highest quality and take proactive steps to minimize the chances of injury. Regrettably, accidents will occur, but important actions have been taken to prevent them. Some of those proactive steps are: Frequent safety inspections of the racecourses, and the presence of a designated safety adviser at the race meets; Aggressive, year-round turf care of our racemeet courses, which in some cases includes state-of-the-art watering systems and maintenance programs found more often at golf courses or other venues; Pre-race physical examinations by experienced, licensed equine veterinarians to determine whether the horses are sufficiently fit and sound to compete in a demanding athletic competition; Post-race medication testing to assure that no prohibited substances are present in the horse and that permitted medicines are within regulatory limits; Presence of a well-equipped equine ambulance on the course during the races, with an official veterinarian on duty to evaluate and direct the treatment of any injuries; The NSA s Steeplechase Safety Committee researches and recommends improvements to promote safety of horses and riders.
