The new Gallop Track surface we have in our arena at Ellerston Onassis Polo has been a massive help to our training routine.

With all this rain recently, we have been riding up to 90 horses a day in the arena. With a quick groom from our Gallop Track groom the arena is always ready for practise chukkas or schooling whenever we want.

The surface has great grip and give for the horses to be worked hard at any time of the day, any time of the year.

It’s amazing how quiet the surface rides too.

Our initial concerns was “would the existing material blend with the new material” and following numerous test samples we were comfortable to move a head with the project with Gallop Track.

Working 14 days straight, the process was very thorough and professional. The track was reopened for track work and initial reaction and feedback has been very positive, we have also just encountered yet another flood and the newly renovated Synthetic/Gallop Track was nothing short
of fantastic.

The post service support and follow up has been great and I look forward to continuing a long and positive relationship moving forward with Gallop Track.

Are You Supporting Animal Welfare,
Attracting World-Class Trainers, And
Elevating Your Race Club?

As a racing authority or board member, you work closely with horse owners, trainers, and track managers. But, when complaints about tracks & crossings become common, you need backup support from your track installer.

Between protecting horses and jockeys from injuries, ongoing maintenance costs associated with watering and preparing crossing and tracks, and a loss of confidence from the industry, the challenge to present a consistent surface can feel like a moving target that’s impossible to hit.

You want to attract world-class trainers to improve the quality and size of your club. You’re passionate about protecting jockey and animal welfare and minimising injury to support equine athletes during and after their careers. And you’re motivated to elevate your Race Club to an elite level to support your commercial goals.

But there may be challenges standing in the way of delivering the training and race day experience you want…

Is Your Race Club Facing Any Of The Following Challenges?

Are you worried about the risk of injury to both jockeys and horses?

And you want a proven way to provide secure and absorbent footing to protect the health and careers of horses and jockeys…

Are your track managers noting increasing maintenance costs?

And you want to slash the overheads that come from track irrigation and protecting your track from day-to-day traffic volume…

Are you hearing repeat complaints from trainers and jockeys?

And you want to meet the performance expectations of an elite track or crossover that’s safe and consistent all year round…

If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, your Track and Crossings is perfectly positioned to benefit from an all-year round track engineered to support animal wellbeing and performance.

Introducing Gallop Track Surface:

The Simple and Effective Way to Stop Putting Million Dollar Equine Athletes at Risk

At ECA and Gallop Track, we understand the challenges you face as a Race Club stakeholder or racing enthusiast. Meeting the needs of owners, trainers, jockeys and the public can feel like multiple targets… in reality, they all come down to |
your track.

With our scientifically designed and tested ECA, Gallop Track & Aqua Track surfaces you can minimise the risk of injuries to both horses and jockeys while delivering optimal conditions for training and racing.

How Synthetic Footing Works

Synthetic Training & Racing Tracks:

Manufactured to the high standards demanded by the Racing Industry using engineered materials of sand, fibre, and our unique UV Stabilised Polymer Compound.

Water & Dust-Free Surface:

Silica sand, fibres and liquid binding agents provide consistent going regardless of weather.

Strong Energy Return:

Equine limbs are subject to less stress and less force when galloping over an elastic and flexible surface.

Cushioning Technology:

Can provide greater hoof support and less kickback to promote animal safety while providing less bottom up compaction to your footing.

How Aqua Tracks Works

Below Surface Irrigation System:

Provides water on demand from the ground up for consistent moisture which eliminates dry patches or inconsistencies.

Fibre Sand or Sand Alone Surface:

Stable footing complemented by the best and latest technology in below surface watering techniques.

Lower Water Consumption:

Recycle water and control water injected into the track surface to keep moisture in the footing even in dry weather.

Slash High Irrigation Costs:

Programmable system eliminates the need for above ground water cannons, sprinkler systems or water trucks that deliver inconsistent water distribution.

Combine Gallop Track unique fibre sand and Aqua Track to provide a stable footing for all disciplines, lower water consumption for significant cost reductions and an elite, all-weather surface to elevate your Race Club.
