Best Answer

Yes, but probably not straight off the track (although there are some horses who could probably be ridden out between races). Some horses are ridden extensively as part of their pre-race training (trail ridden etc.) so may be able to be ridden sooner than another race horse with less "outdoor" experience. Each horse is different and may initially require a more skilled hand post racing or a period of letdown before retraining.
