Differential rotational movement and symmetry values of the thoracolumbosacral region in high-level dressage horses when trotting.

High-level dressage horses regularly perform advanced movements, requiring coordination and force transmission between front and hind limbs across the thoracolumbosacral region. This study aimed at quantifying kinematic differences in dressage horses when ridden in sitting trot-i.e. with additional...
