EQUINE PHYSIOLOGY
Conditioning vs training: what are the differences in horses?
Conditioning and training are terms that could be confused. Although both terms lead to an improvement in the horse’s abilities, they do not have the same effects on the horse. This article explains the principle of conditioning and its effects, as well as those of training.
The acid-base balance during exercise
During exercise, the acid-base balance of the horse’s body is perturbed. By using more oxygen and energy, his metabolism produces waste products that acidify his body. The body then naturally regulates its pH level in order to maintain this acid-base balance. How does the horse’s acid-base balance work during exercise?
Exercises of varying intensity: what effect on the horse?
During exercise of varying intensities, the different systems of the horse’s body adapt their functioning. In this article we will look at these changes through the respiratory, cardiovascular and muscular systems.
Racehorse’s three main physiological systems: roles and functions
The horse’s body has three key systems to ensure its proper functioning: the respiratory, cardiovascular and muscular systems.
How do these metabolisms work? What roles do they play in the horse’s body?
What is the influence of training on a racehorse’s cardiovascular system?
The horse’s cardiovascular system allows good blood circulation and ensures oxygen transport. How does the horse improve it?
Thermoregulation in horses: how do they regulate their body heat?
Thermoregulation in horses is the set of mechanisms that allow them to maintain a desired temperature. How does it work?

EQUINE HEALTH & SCIENCE
The challenges of the horse racing industry
Horse racing is one of the world’s oldest sports. With the sport trapped inside its conventional framework and developing laws and values, it is clear that this sector is increasingly struggling to adapt, flourish, and progress. What are the horse racing industry’s strengths and weaknesses?
Equine welfare: a major challenge for the racing industry
Horse racing has a long history and a strong cultural tradition in many parts of the world. However, today’s horse racing industry faces a major challenge: combining the excitement and emotion of competition with equine welfare. A number of initiatives are being implemented to promote more responsible practices, such as retirement and retraining programs and stronger doping restrictions.
What influence do age and training have on Thoroughbreds?
Data has been increasingly important in the world of sports in recent years. It affects every discipline, including horse racing. As a result, a group of researchers asked the following question: what are the impacts of age and training on Thoroughbreds?
YOUNG RACEHORSES MONITORING
Young racehorses’ recovery
Young horses do not have the same recovery patterns as older horses, even for equal intensity training or between two horses with equivalent fitness. Indeed, young horses have a less efficient heart and must adapt their muscular and neurological systems to the training conditions. They need time to adapt before they can recover properly. The evaluation of recovery in young horses is therefore done differently. How do recovery data differ between young horses and adult horses? How do you assess it?
Physiological changes in the young racehorse
Many physiological and musculoskeletal changes may be seen in young Thoroughbreds as early as the first weeks and months of training.
7 reasons to monitor young racehorses
Broken in and pre-trained, the young horses are ready to start their sporting career and start racing. This first period of work is crucial for the horse’s career. Collecting and analysing data from the very beginning of their training brings many benefits.
