Telescopic Boom

The Telescopic Boom is another safety product designed to keep horses from going the wrong way around the racetrack out of the chute.

The Telescopic Boom is a simple one-man operation that is lightweight but very effective. At Churchill Downs, it is used in races that start from-the-chute, protecting young horses from bolting or attempting to run in the wrong direction out of the chute.
