[RC] Differences in Horse Strength - Bruce Weary DCHere is an article that adds to the mix of the variables of how horses do their work, and why they perform differently under various workloads. Size, conformation, fitness, muscle mass and type, vascular competence, heart size, electrolyte metabolism---all these and more determine how much weight a horse can carry, how far, and how fast.
