Ear plugs are used for nervous types and the plugs are eased into the ear prior to racing. some horses will stand in the stable wearing them as the loudspeakers and crowd noise can upset them.
These ear plugs are a brilliant answer for horses who are highly strung and lose focus in loud environments. The pull cord allows the rider to quickly remove the ear plugs, especially useful for racing. The Zilco Moulded Rubber Ear Plugs are made from moulded rubber which sit firmly in the ear and block out more noise than other material.
