Are you and your horse performing at your best?

What effect do you, as a rider, have on your horse’s stride characteristics? Is your horse symmetrical and is this altered when you ride? Is your horse moving correctly in all gaits for your discipline? What is the most suitable music for your horse’s gaits? Have your horse’s gait characteristics changed during training? The Pegasus Performance Test will give you the answers to these questions and many more besides. Pegasus Motion Analysis uses 21st century technology and this easy and quick test takes only minutes to set up.

The Pegasus team will come to your yard and you can be ready to take the test in the time it takes you to tack up. They mount sensor modules on your horse’s own brushing boots and a GPS module on your cap. These are linked to a laptop which analyses the data. The test usually takes about 45 minutes, which includes 20 minutes riding time. The Pegasus equine professional will give you a complete report on the day, explain your analysis and develop a future work programme for you to discuss with your trainer or vet.

If you are part of a school, Pegasus can arrange to test a group of horses on the same day, which will make the test more cost-effective for all of you. Pegasus is also a useful tool in monitoring a horse’s recovery and to carry out a pre-purchase performance check.
