Veterinarians in the Structure and Motion lab at the University of London's Royal Veterinary College have been working with the British Racing School in Newmarket to analyze the best and safest ways for jockeys to ride their horses. To determine just how energy-efficient Sloan's Pose is, they attached identical sensors to a horse's saddle and to a jockey's belt. As the horse raced around the track, the sensors recorded the movements of both horse and jockey. (source: sciencenow.sciencemag.org)
