ABSTRACT:
A racetrack guard is disclosed which includes a plurality of spaced-apart upright gooseneck curved posts or stanchions. The exposed ends of the posts or stanchions are covered by and attached to a rail which runs from post to post. On the top of the posts or stanchions are disposed a number of generally L-shaped elongated panels in overlapping relationship from end to end. The panels are attached to the rail and to the stanchions. The panels, which are formed of a resilient, shock absorbing material, overlie the posts to provide a cushioning or shock absorbing surface. These conditions are extremely desirable in protecting a jockey from a serious injury in the event of a fall from a horse during a race.
