Whether at the track or farm, accidents and injuries can happen anywhere, at any time. When minutes count, we need to know how to make the most of every second. It is essential that everyone involved with horse racing learn how to administer first aid.

Equine Guelph has issued a last call to grooms and trainers for its free equine first aid online course.

Never taken an online course before? No worries! There is no set schedule, so take it online at your convenience. The course takes a common sense, practical approach to training. No prior online learning experience required.

The course is set to start this coming Monday (Feb. 10) and run until February 17.

Register for free at www.TheHorsePortal.ca/RacingPilot using the coupon code provided for each sector. The offer is on a first-come, first-served basis to the first 100 AGCO licence holders to register.
