A starting gate is a structure used in horse racing to ensure that all horses begin the race at the same time. It has individual stalls where each horse stands before the race begins. When the race starts, the front doors of the stalls open at the same moment, allowing the horses to run forward. This helps make the race fair by preventing any horse from getting an early advantage. Starting gates are also used in other sports, such as dog racing and some motorbike competitions, to ensure a fair start.
