Racing Tack | Emmers Equestrian
The Racing Tack suspensor is a specialist support garment for entire (uncastrated) stallions in racing work. It is designed to keep your stallion settled and comfortable during fast exercise by reducing unwanted movement. Made specifically for lean, racing-type physiques and tested within the racing world, not adapted from general equestrian equipment, it is a purpose-built piece of kit for the racing yard. It isn't something every yard needs, and that is its strength.
Racing Tack's suspensor is made for lean racehorses, not for the broader build of warmblood-type horses. If you train or ride an active racing-bred stallion, it is a targeted comfort aid made for exactly your situation.
Tips for Choosing
- Check your horse's build against the intended fit before ordering. The suspensor is designed for lean, racing-type conformation, not broader warmblood frames.
- Easy on, easy off. It is meant to fit into your usual tacking-up routine without adding much time.
- Aim for a comfortable, non-restrictive fit. If anything feels tight or ill-fitting, reassess the sizing instead of persisting with it.
- Made for active stallions in training or racing work, not for geldings, mares, or horses in other disciplines.
- Introduce it gradually, as you would any new piece of equipment, and watch how your horse responds in the first few sessions.
