Proposal to rate the power of a horse in the international endurance championship

Abstract EN

Currently, in the International Endurance Championship the winning horse is awarded a certificate and a brief report of its performance.

The report mainly reflects stage, position, distance, starting time, arrival time, ride time, and the speed.

Unfortunately no mention is made of the average power of the horse (P) and the amount of energy (E) expended by the horse in the race.

Herein, we have reached an approximate equation to calculate P and E.
