25.01.2022 Nice article here on genetics and training in human athletes. The only horse event which is physiologically similar to the human 100 and 200 m sprint is Quarter horse racing. Success in thoroughbred 1200 m races depends on superior sprint and stamina. A sprint cannot be maintained for 1200 m, and resistance to fatigue in the last 200 metres will likely depend on oxygen transport and whether the horse's muscle has been trained for fatigue resistance. http://www.abc.net.au/radionati/programs/bodysphere/4960990

06.01.2022 I have been fortunate to provide consulting services concerning use of high speed treadmills over many years to owners and trainers of racehorses. I have just been asked why I advocate treadmill training in addition to racetrack training. I have listed the benefits of adding treadmill exercise to any equine athlete's training program at www.evansscience.com.au.
