摘要：In track testing of aerobic fitness in the racehorse, the measurement of heart rate and running speed is essential. In this study, we examined EquiPILOT®, an automated recording system which measures those two variables, for its reliability during the racehorse training. After some adjustment for fitting, it has been shown that the speed measured by this system is very accurate, and that its measurements of heart rate and running speed are stable. Based on our data, the EquiPILOT® has been proved reliable for assessing aerobic capacity of running racehorses on the track.
