How Our Technology Works

Gathering the DATA on the ground by measuring horses
and scanning hearts

Gathering the DATA digitally by measuring stride lengths and body angles on video

Sample Graph

Computing the data
to determine growth-curve
and speed algorithms

Tracking the data
with a database which follows racing and breeding performance

BreezeFigs™ At 2YO Sales

BreezeFigs™ At 2YO Sales

  • Metrics Equine has developed BreezeFigs™, a "speed figure" system that analyzes stride length and other factors of horses in motion at 2-year-old sales or at racetracks (in races or morning breezes) to select the most promising racing prospects.
  • BreezeFigs™ top selections include 79% of all stakes horses to emerge from the major 2-year-old sales in North America.
  • Daily Racing Form has incorporated BreezeFigs™ as part of its DRF-Plus on-line handicapping services to select the unraced or lightly-raced horses with the best chances to win races.

Biomechanical Analysis

Biomechanical Analysis

  • Metrics Equine is utilizing advanced technologies to refine the age-old art of hand-measuring horses in order to improve the consistancy of those techniques. The multiple physical measurements of racing prospects and bloodstock that we acquire are associated and analyzed through multiple computer programs to project a horse's potential racing and/or breeding capabilities using universally accepted growth curves. The results are logical projections about a Thoroughbred's form and likely function on the racetrack or in the breeding shed.
  • Biomechanical analysis for racing purposes is available for yearlings, 2-year-olds and older horses in training. Breeding analysis for broodmare or stallion potential is available for yearlings, 2-year-olds and older horses in training, and recently retired racehorses.

Cardio Score to help determine distance & Quality Potential

Cardio Score to help determine distance potential & Quality Potential

  • Metrics Equine takes an ultra-sound heart scan to generate a Cardio Score based on the size, age and fitness of individual horses.
  • The Cardio Score is a relative measure of the heart's innate capacity to supply oxygen needs to that horse, and can be compared to a horse's peers, whether it's a yearling, 2-year-old in training, currently racing, or breeding stock, and often by sire.
