Reasearchers of the University of Melbourne will find that can we use biometric data to predict racehorse injuries and can prevent them from catastrophic events. Dr Peta Lee Hitchens, a researcher and a professor at the University of Melbourne, said, “Our research firstly matched the StrideMASTER biometric data with other race field information and veterinary findings provided by Tasracing from between 2011 and 2016”.

By using the joint model in research, they analysed the changes in stride characteristics predicted injury
