I'm thinking any research comparing dressage to endurance horses would be
apples to oranges. The max a dressage horse works is 45 min per day, six
days a week. In performance, how long does it take to ride a dressage test?
(3 minutes) How much lactic acid could possibly build up in that period
of time?

Read about the research that says it's OK to put cold, even ice water on
the
hindquarter muscles to cool the horse off? Says not putting water on
hindquarter is "old wives tale" -- any body know about this research?
