Three F's of Taking Care of Polo and Other Performance Horses
Taking care of polo horses is a major part of the game. Many people focus only on the player, but the reality is that the horse is the foundation of performance. A polo horse cannot run at its maximum speed, remain agile, and respond effectively on the field without proper training, care, and conditioning.

For people who have never owned or cared for horses, it is important to understand the amount of time, effort, and knowledge required to prepare a polo horse. The work that happens off the field directly impacts what happens during the game. Reading research on horse welfare helps players and owners better understand what horses need to stay healthy, perform at a high level, and continue to enjoy their role in the sport.

Forage, freedom of movement, and social interactions remain essential fundamentals for the welfare of high-level sport horses
• High-level sport horses require more than athletic training; their welfare depends on meeting fundamental behavioral and biological needs, including access to forage, movement, and social contact.
• The article emphasizes that horses evolved as grazing animals, and restricted feeding patterns or limited opportunities to forage can negatively affect physical health, digestive function, and psychological well-being.
• Freedom of movement is identified as an important welfare factor because horses naturally travel, explore, and exercise over large areas. Excessive confinement may contribute to behavioral problems and reduced quality of life.
• Social interaction with other horses is a critical component of equine welfare because horses are social animals that rely on herd relationships for communication, security, and normal behavior development.
• The authors argue that improving welfare practices for elite sport horses requires balancing performance goals with the horse’s natural needs, creating management systems that support both athletic success and long-term health.
