The Racewood Eventing Simulator
The most advanced equestrian simulator in the world. From dressage movements to jumping up to 1.20m, train smarter, safer, and without tiring a single horse.
What is the Eventing Simulator?
The Racewood Eventing Simulator is a sophisticated equestrian training tool. It’s a full-size, motion-controlled horse that replicates authentic riding movements. From basic flatwork all the way to dressage and show jumping.
Using state-of-the-art motion control technology, it moves in ways no other simulator can match. And because it’s equipped with advanced sensors, you get real-time feedback on your rein contact, seat position, and leg pressure. All things that are nearly impossible to analyse on a real horse.
What can you train?
Dressage
From basic flatwork to advanced movements like Piaffe, Passage, Pirouettes, Half Pass, and Shoulder-In. The simulator replicates a trained horse’s rhythm and responsiveness.
Show Jumping
Practice jumping in a safe, controlled environment. Learn to spot the stride by collecting or extending ahead of each jump. Heights adjustable up to 1.20m.
Cross Country
Negotiate technical combinations and varied terrain through our cross-country course simulation. Build confidence before taking on the real thing.
Multi-Sensor Feedback
Advanced sensors track rein contact, balance in the saddle, and leg positioning. See exactly what you’re doing—and what needs to change—in real time.
Never-Ending Jumps
Instructors can vary the distance between jumps and change the type and height on the fly. Perfect for building rhythm and confidence without limits.
Beginner to Advanced
Multiple training modes let us adjust the experience for complete beginners right through to professional riders. There’s a setting for everyone.
Who benefits from simulator training?
Beginners
Learn the basics in complete safety. Relax your spine and pelvis, develop good posture, and experience a horse’s movement without fear of falling.
Nervous Riders
Rebuild confidence after a fall or a bad experience. The simulator is predictable – it never spooks, bucks, or misbehaves. Just patient, consistent movement.
Injury Recovery
Coming back from injury? The simulator lets you rebuild strength and muscle memory in a controlled environment before getting back on a real horse.
Advanced Riders
Drill technique, refine your position, and work on specific movements without tiring your horse. See real-time data on what you’re doing in the saddle.

We have found the Eventing simulator has transformed the way we work with riders – we can’t imagine functioning without it now. It is so versatile, it is in demand for everything from birthday parties to elite training camps. The ability to select from various ‘modes’; beginner to advanced means that there will be an activity to suit every type of rider from any discipline. I describe it as the perfect schoolmaster!
