Introduction

The Olympic has been particularly developed with 2 & 3 year old Flat racehorses in mind. Trials have been carried out in a leading Newmarket flat yard, asking them to bring out their most quirky horses to be weighed, and then building in the features as outlined below, to be able to weigh these horses easily;the results have been staggering!

It is ideal for use with foals, young stock & all competition horses, particularly 2 & 3 year old "Flat" race horses.
