Turf track surface interaction with speed and musculoskeletal injury risk in Thoroughbred racehorses
Abstract Background Injury modelling based on changes in speed and stride characteristics of racehorses has become a primary industry focus for the Thoroughbred racing industry. However, speed and stride characteristics are strongly associated with track condition; therefore, reliable quantification of surface variables for use in future models is ...
