At Sydney’s Royal Randwick, Altitude Services created the twin altitude stalls at John Thompson’s racing stables. They are air-conditioned and air-filtered, providing cutting edge of performance technology in the horse racing industry.

“We saw the impressive work that Altitude Services had completed at other racing facilities here in Australia. We read the supportive scientific information on the system and decided to invest in the technology. A legal 1-3% performance improvement at our level of racing is a huge advantage” commented John.

“John’s facility posed a unique challenge for our building team” commented Altitude Services general manager, Rod Cedaro. “In previous situations we’ve either built new systems from scratch, or been forced to retrofit poorly constructed, but purpose built, altitude stables. John’s circumstances were different. Here we were faced with existing stables that needed to be converted right beside normal horse boxes. We had to ensure that the area was effectively sound-proofed whilst modifying the existing stables in the context of the overall existing training facility. I think we’re all pretty happy with what has been achieved, on time and on budget. We can all now look forward to an exciting and successful Autumn Racing Carnival.”
