Pre\u2010operative variables retrieved were: patient age, gender, limb involvement, injury occurrence, fracture length, and width, evidence of palmar comminution and degenerative joint disease, number of pre\u2010injury starts, and pre\u2010injury earnings.

Left front limb fractures were most common (8) followed by left hind (5) and right front (3). Nine fractures occurred during training and 7 during racing; 4 fractures had palmar comminution. No surgical complications occurred. Of 15 horses that returned to training, 11 (73%) raced 306\u00b167 days after injury and had greater mean (\u00b1SD) post\u2010injury earnings\/start ($5290.00\u00b1$8124.00) than pre\u2010injury ($4971.00\u00b1$2842.00).
