What is Reining
Reining is a western equestrian discipline where the rider guides the horse through a precise pattern of maneuvers. Each movement is judged from a base score of 70 points.
Spins, sliding stops, rollbacks, lead changes: every figure tells the story of a horse born to work cattle, today transformed into a precision athlete.

The project
Reining Factory was born from a passion for Reining. It is a space created by fans, for fans, where we collect info, pedigrees, results and events to offer a clear view of the discipline.
Our mission is to become a reliable reference for Reining. We make data accessible, valuing horses, bloodlines and events, to contribute to the growth of the community.
Reining Factory grows with the community. Have a report, want to add your horses, propose a collab or advertise? We are open to everything.
