Regression analyses revealed few associations between the presence of periarticular osteophytes and performance parameters. Affected horses had fewer starts at 4\u2009years of age (incident rate ratio [IRR] 0.92, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.01) and fewer lifetime starts (IRR 0.95, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.003), but the effect size was small. Within the affected group, osteophyte size was only associated with number of starts at 3 (IRR 0.67, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.0001).
