It is under an insulated roof to help shield horses form extreme heat in the summer. It can be used as a hot walker and because of the electronic speed control it can be used to condition race horses and muscle up sale horses. The 4,104 sq. feet main yearling barn is divided into two run in areas with each side having an automatic waterer. One side is currently used for fillies and the other for male colts. Between the two sides is a complex of gates designed to safely and efficiently handle individual yearlings for grooming, training, and veterinary access. The gates allow yearlings to be separated and put into a handling chute by one person. The chute is made of 2 inch round pipe for safely handling and inspecting yearlings. Hay is stored above the center aisle complex for easy feeding to each of the run in areas. In addition to the yearling barn there is a second yearling barn across the lane.
