Two-time Kentucky Derby winning trainer Carl Nafzger believes trainers across the country should consider the benefits of a Pro-Ride surface.
Pro-Ride Racing's synthetic surface performed beautifully last winter at the Skylight Training Center providing Carl Nafzger and Ian Wilkes with uninterrupted training while surfaces all around them have struggled with the harsh conditions.
Both Carl and Ian have been effusive in their praise of the Pro-Ride surface noting how it has maintained its consistency and provided an even and stable surface, even when the mercury dipped below freezing.
Reduced jarring thanks to the unique 2-phase cushioning allows the horses to train regularly and return to racing quicker than otherwise might be the case.
Minimal kickback reducing inhalation by horse and jockey was also a bonus from Carl and Ian's perspective.
Will Carl's third Kentucky Derby winner be trained on a Pro-Ride surface? Fingers crossed.

"The Pro-Ride (footing) is a generation ahead; a step forward for synthetic racing surfaces from wax. It requires very little maintenance. We have gone from using 12,000 gallons of water per day to using no water at all." - Bill Wahl
Ian Pearse, Managing Director ~ Pro-Ride Racing Australia with Niall O'Callaghan, trainer ~ Skylight Training Center
"I haven't seen any other surface better for the soundness of the horse...break over at a gallop doesn’t cup out - there is no slippage."
"The Pro-Ride (footing) has a beautiful cushion." - Niall O'Callaghan
