Welcome to Inscape Quest, a compelling podcast where we provide an intriguing insight into the world of horse racing. Today we have two trailblazing women, retired jockey and sport analyzer for NBC Sports, Donna Barton Brothers, and former jockey, racing manager and consultant, Euki Binns. Both with experience and remarkable equestrian backgrounds, they delve into their personal journey, the sport's dynamics, and their invariable passion for these majestic creatures.
In this episode, they discuss their experiences as female jockeys in the traditionally male-dominated sport. They highlight how women involvement has evolved over the years, and how they overcame personal and professional challenges. Beyond horse racing, this episode is a conversation about the pursuit of passion, breaking barriers, and making a meaningful impact in unique ways.
This dialogue goes beyond the glitz and glamour to explore the serious issue of horse welfare in racing. The speakers mention media misrepresentation, compare perceptions and realities of horse welfare, argue for better care of these majestic animals, and discuss the significant strides made towards reducing horse injuries. Leveraging technology and data is also a focal point, with emphasis on how predictive software like Stride Safe aids in injury prediction and prevention.
Furthermore, they debunk myths surrounding medication usage in horse racing, reiterating that accidents or breakdowns are often not a result of inhumane treatment or medication misuse. They commend the work of the Horse Racing Integrity and Safety Authority in ensuring fair play and thorough testing for a broad spectrum of drugs in the sport.
This episode also touches on the positive impact of horses on the economy, recreational spaces, therapy, and how horses have been notably successful in treating PTSD in veterans. Here we uncover the profound bond between humans and horses, its beneficial impact on mental well-being and its important role in maintaining green spaces.
