Risk factors for metabolic elimination in endurance rides in New Zealand (2015)
In the last years, the endurance sport had to deal with a lot of discussion whether the welfare of the horses is still being warranted because of the changes in the endurance sport. This study was performed to report about the endurance sport in New Zealand and how it has changed in the last couple of years. The data set included 540 rides that made up for 4168 starts. The starts included as much information as possible about the horse, rider, location and date of the ride and the type of ride as those were possible risk factors for metabolic elimination.
