Team Valor International=s Animal Kingdom (Leroidesanimaux {Brz}) registered his final serious work for next Saturday=s GI Breeders= Cup Mile, breezing five furlongs around the turf dogs in 1:02.40 Friday morning KING FOR A DAY? (video). With exercise rider David Nava in the irons, Just like Camelot (GB) (Montjeu {Ire}) last year, Animal Kingdom broke off Kingsbarns (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) arrives on Doncaster=s about three lengths behind Town Moor with a buzz surrounding him as he bids to his workmate Badleroibrown provide Ballydoyle with back-to-back renewals of the (Leroidesanimaux {Brz}) and G1 Racing Post Trophy today.

That defeat of the much-vaunted Richard Hannon trainee Montiridge (Ire) (Ramonti {Fr}) and another promising Ballydoyle colt in Eye of the Storm (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) was another step up from a highly promising debut second in the Listed Breeders= Cup Juvenile Turf Trial S. at Leopardstown Sept. 8 and seven-length maiden win at Gowran Park Sept. 23. Saeed Manana=s unbeaten Van Der Neer (Ire) (Dutch Art [GB}) was also supplemented alongside Kingsbarns this week, and trainer Richard Hannon has several smart yardsticks to measure his ability against at home.

Indy) makes his much-anticipated return to the races in today=s GII Fayette S. at Keeneland, a prep for the Nov. 23 GI Clark H. at Churchill Downs. Though best known for his front-running upset in the GI Florida Derby Mar. 31, the son of MGISW Take Charge Lady (Dehere) was effective in three starts on Polytrack to begin his career, including a maiden win and runner-up effort in the GIII Arlington-Washington Futurity and a decent fourth to Dullahan (Even the Score) in this track=s GI Dixiana Breeders= Futurity last October. The dark bay is unraced since undergoing surgery after finishing well down the field in the GI Kentucky Derby May 5. Middie (Officer) is something of a wild card here and brings a record of three wins from four tries over synthetics. An allowance winner at this meet 366 days back, he has since added a 14-1 upset in the GIII Washington Park H. Sept. 1 and an allowance score here Oct. 6. When last Newsdad (Arch) tried this Poly, he set a track record for a mile and a quarter (2:00 3/5) in winning an allowance last October. The Karp homebred has been off the board in four starts since annexing the grassy GII Pan American S. Mar. 24 and was last seen finishing fifth in the GII Bowling Green S. at Belmont Sept. 8.

    Epidemiology of health and performance in New Zealand racehorses A thesis presented In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Veterinary Epidemiology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Nigel Ross Perkins 2005 ii iii iv v Abstract: The aim of this research was to describe training and racing patterns, and causes of wastage in New Zealand Thoroughbred racehorses. Two separate studies were performed. The first involved analysis of data from before and after construction of a new training track at the Matamata Racing Club. Comparisons of measures of performance failed to detect any adverse impact that could be attributed to the new track. The second involved a longitudinal study over a 34-month period, and that involved 1,571 horses. Duration of training preparations and spell periods were associated with horse age, and with the reason for ending a training preparation. Most horses began a training preparation doing slow work and then progressively advanced to a first start. Incidence rates were estimated for starts per 100 training-days, and other summary measures were estimated including training-days to first start, and between successive starts. A total of 834 musculoskeletal injuries (MSI) were observed, resulting in either a spell period, retirement, or death of the horse. There were 165 respiratory disease events, and 58 conditions involving other body systems. Multivariate statistical models were used to explore risk factors for different types of MSI. Older horses were at higher risk of lower limb MSI, and injury to either the superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) or suspensory apparatus (SA), while they were at lower risk of shin soreness and other conditions.

    DISSERTATION EFFECT OF BONE GEOMETRY ON STRESS DISTRIBUTION PATTERNS IN THE EQUINE METACARPOPHALANGEAL JOINT Submitted by Katrina L. Easton Graduate Degree Program in Bioengineering In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Spring 2012 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: Chris Kawcak Wayne McIlwraith Christian Puttlitz Sue James Kevin Shelburne Paul Heyliger Copyright by Katrina L. Easton 2012 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT EFFECT OF BONE GEOMETRY ON STRESS DISTRIBUTION PATTERNS IN THE EQUINE METACARPOPHALANGEAL JOINT Catastrophic injury of the equine metacarpophalangeal joint is of major concern for both the equine practitioner and the American public. It is one of the major reasons for retirement and sometimes euthanasia of Thoroughbred racehorses. The most common type of catastrophic injury is fracture of the proximal sesamoid bones and lateral condyle of the third metacarpal bone. Many times these injuries are so disastrous that there is no possibility of fixing them. Even in the injuries that are able to be fixed, complications arising from the fracture such as support limb laminitis may ultimately lead to the demise of the horse. Therefore, prevention of these types of injuries is key. In order to decrease the incidence of injury, it is important to understand the risk factors and pathogenesis of disease that leads to them. This project was established to create a finite element model of the equine metacarpophalangeal joint in order to investigate possible risk factors, namely bone geometry, and its effect on the stress distribution pattern in the joint. The first part of the study involved in vitro experiments in order to provide a comprehensive dataset of ligament, tendon, and bone strain and pressure distribution in the joint with which to validate the finite element model.

  • Drug Use in Racehorses, Difficulty Assigning Responsibility and the Need for a National Racing Commission
    Online at www.michbar.org/aglaw Transgressing Trainers and Enhanced Equines: Drug Use in Racehorses, Difficulty Assigning Responsibility and the Need for a National Racing Commission By Kjirsten Lee Introduction From Saratoga Race Track in New York State to Santa Anita Park in California, and from Canterbury Downs in Minnesota to Gulfstream Park in Florida, horse racing spans the United States and has always been a part of American culture.1 It is known as “the sport of kings,”2 and millions of dollars change hands every year chasing “1,200-pound investment vehicles running on legs more slender than the average human’s.”3 Tragically, the sport has been tainted by the use of steroids and painkilling drugs, the administration of which masks injury and creates an unfair advantage by allowing horses to race that are not physically up to the challenge.4 Genetically built for speed, over time the Thoroughbred horse has been bred to be faster, with little concern for what might be sacrificed in return. Recently, the American general public has become more aware of the sacrifices breeders make as horses in prestigious races break down on the track.5 In 2006, Americans’ hearts stopped in their chests when Barbaro shattered his leg in the Preakness Stakes, the second jewel of racing’s illustrious Triple Crown. He was euthanized in January of 2007 when veterinarians were unable to repair his leg following multiple surgeries.6 The next year was particularly dark for racing: after watching the remarkable filly Eight Belles collapse after finishing second to Big Brown in the Kentucky Derby,7 racing fans hoped Big Brown, after winning the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes, might be the first Triple Crown champion since Affirmed in 1978.8 But hopes were dashed when the Derby and 1 See, e.g., Horse racing, Wikipedia, stating that the oldest Thoroughbred track in the United States dates back to 1665 on Long Island.

Despite increasing interest in the study of genetic susceptibility to disease from the veterinary research community as a whole over past decades, the Thoroughbred has been largely ignored as a study group. The availability of software capable of complex genetic analyses using large, unbalanced pedigrees has made the study of genetic susceptibility to disease a realistic prospect for veterinary researchers.
