| Abstract: | Background Orthopaedic injury is the most common reason for lameness and wastage in sport and leisure horses. Studies on racehorses have
shown differences in injury risk between trainers and training strategies. The aim was to study between riding school variation
in orthopaedic health status by clinical examination and horses age, and control for change of examiner, in schools with previous
high (n = 4) and low (n = 4) insurance utilisation. |
