From Emirates Comparison of Lameness Data between 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 Race Season in Endurance Horses

Federico Pita DVM

From United Arab Emirates an Endurance Training Center will compare lameness events data in horses training
between 2018-2019 and 2019- 2020 Race Seasons.
Lameness events were registered in quantity and by types. After finishing the first season, a recovery process system
was implemented to improve the horse’s conditions with more specific lameness diagnostic, X Rays to improve the
farrier service, treatments between corticosteroids and regenerative medicine, and rehabilitation exercise. Then, a
new program of exercise was established to improve the athletic condition of the horses for 19-20 race season.
That recovery stage showed an important decrease of lameness events. Trainers had the possibility to improve the
training system with more distance and better average speed. At the same time, they were achieving better race results
than before, and even increased the percentage of races completed.
