Document: Water in the food seems to encourage more rapid presentation of glucose to the intestine from the stomach, which may indicate an increased rate in gastric emptying. Gastric ulcer prevalence has been evaluated in many equine performance disciplines. Polo horses are a unique equine population that are often housed and exercised in groups. Therefore, ulcer occurrence and risk factors may differ in this performance discipline compared to previously studied populations. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of gastric ulceration in polo horses and identify potential risk factors for squamous and glandular ulceration.
