  • A Retrospective Case-Control Study to Investigate Horse and Jockey Level Risk Factors Associated with Horse Falls in Irish Point-To-Point Races L
    A retrospective case-control study to investigate horse and jockey level risk factors associated with horse falls in Irish Point-to-Point races L. J. Smith, G. Tabor and J. Williams Abstract Horse racing as a high-risk sport can pose a significant risk to equine welfare. To date there have been limited epidemiological reviews of fall risk specific to point-to-point racing. This study aimed to identify horse and jockey level risk factors associated with horse falls and to compare these to published findings for Hurdle and Steeplechase racing. The study used a retrospective matched case-control design. Relevant variables were identified and information was collated for all races in the 2013/14 and 2014/15 seasons. Cases and controls were matched with a 1:3 ratio. Controls (n=2,547) were selected at random from all horses that completed in the same race (n=849). Horse and jockey level variables were analysed through univariable analysis to inform multivariable model building. A final matched case- control multivariable logistic regression model was refined, using fall/no fall as the dependent variable, through a backward stepwise process. Horse age was associated with an increased risk of horse falls. For every 1 unit increase in age there was a 1.2 times increased risk of falling. The overall number of races ran within 12 months was associated with a decreased risk of falling. The jockeys previous seasons percentage wins was associated with the risk of horse falls with jockeys who had 0-4% wins and 5-9% wins having an increase in risk compared to those who had over 20% wins/runs.

The Second Edition was published in 2002, and now we’re publishing the Third Edition. I’ve taken out details that are no longer relevant, included Appendix 1 from the USEF Rules for Eventing because of the guidelines this document contains for all the levels, but other than that, there are very few changes. Remember that this pamphlet is about the basics of course design for Jumping courses. It is only about the basics. My advice is to stick to the basics until you have a thorough appreciation of what effect your modifications will have. Like any art, you must understand the basics first, and only then can you mix them up and become more ‘creative’. In addition, I recommend that you read the Introduction
