Research - Equine

The horse is used world wide as a draught animal and for recreation and leisure. It has evolved over millions of years to combine power with athletic performance.

The levels of performance demanded in today's highly competitive world mean that to maximise performance the equine athlete must be in peak physical condition. Research and development in the fields of nutrition and therapy are central to supporting the horse in performance sport.

Moulton College offers a well equipped equestrian centre housing a variety of horses. In addition a horse walker and weigh bridge are sited at the College's Pitsford Centre. These can be used for nutrition trial work and controlled exercise tests.

As an established and recognised training centre, Moulton College is keen to underpin its equine curriculum with applied research that is of value to the equestrian world and of benefit to the horse in terms of its welfare and management.
