siderations, as well as gaps in the equine literature, particularly with regard to the
skeletal muscle metabolome. Finally, there will be a brief discussion of the future
directions and barriers to metabolomics use in the athletic horse. A thorough under-

will undoubtedly help to improve horse management and health across the lifespan.
