Injuries in the Victorian thoroughbred racing industry
| The first 100% of the full text of this article appears below. |
This paper adds to the small body of literature available on horse-related injuries by clearly highlighting the need for adequate prospective data collection. The data analysed represent only a fraction of the injuries and incidents involving horses in Australia, and under-reporting is inevitable in a survey of this sort. The results are very similar to those found in the USA obtained by data collected using a retrospective questionnaire, and the pattern will inevitably change when complete data are available. Nonetheless, the author(s) have confirmed that horse-related injuries are a significant problem in Australian work riders and jockeys.
