The horse is considered a "thin animal" (with little fat), whose weight is divided into approximately 11 % bone, 50 % muscle and 9 % fat; [2] but a large number of factors influence its weight. Some breeds (draft horses) are naturally heavier than others , and differ in size and bone structure, so the weight range of horses is highly variable.
However, horses with a low body condition score lack the fat reserves for strenuous work and also may lack lean muscle. [10] Horses with a very high body condition score carry too much weight, which interferes with stamina and biomechanics. Some studies addressed the relationship of body condition score and endurance performance in endurance races.
