A new technique that uses ultrasound findings to predict a racehorse’s likelihood of returning to racing after a tendon injury has been described by researchers. The study team say the new system will significantly improve racehorse welfare in both the short and long term. It will enable vets and racehorse trainers to make early and informed decisions on a horse’s future – whether to prescribe rest and recovery before racing again, rehabilitation for another career, or immediate retirement. The ultrasound technique was developed by researchers at the University of Nottingham and Oakham Equine Hospital, both in England,
A new parvovirus has been identified which is capable of causing life-threatening liver disease in horses. Researchers focused on a horse that contracted equine serum hepatitis, also known as Theiler’s disease, after receiving a dose of equine-derived tetanus antitoxin. The horse in Nebraska died 65 days after treatment with the antitoxin. Dr Thomas Divers and his colleagues identified the previously unknown parvovirus in the serum and liver of the dead horse, as well as in the administered antitoxin. The equine parvovirus they discovered was genetically analysed and found to be a new species in the genus Copiparvovirus.
A study in Australia has found no evidence that the vaccination against the deadly Hendra virus affects the racing performance of thoroughbreds. The work of University of Sydney researcher Kathrin Schemann and her colleagues involved analysis of data from horses competing at six south-eastern Queensland racetracks.

For each horse, they focused on a six-month racing window, covering three months before and three months after they received their initial shot of the Equivac HeV Hendra virus vaccine. The researchers, writing in the Australian Veterinary Journal, said they
