Abstract
A training course for race horses or other animals has a guide (2) which extends along a preferably endless track (1) and follows the shape of the track. A plurality of mobile units or carriages are caused to travel along the guide by a motor in the lead carriage. Each unit or carriage includes a member (6) for tying the animal (5) to be trained thereto to make it move along the track without the help of a trainer. The exercise of the animal is controlled by monitoring its pulse rate.
