The Statistics Tab
General Presentation
On the "My Horse" tab, you can find some stats on your horse. There is also a comparison between your horse and the community, or another one of your horses.
You can filter these statistics by clicking on the orange and blue buttons right under the graph. You can choose to keep only a type of session, on a given time-period, and to compare your horse with only specific other horses.
What do the different categories on the graphs mean?
The spider diagram, which allows you to compare your horse to the community, has 4 branches:
- Gait Quality
- Physical Condition
- Movement Health
- Training Quality
Each of these points is a group of notes measured by Equisense Motion and Motion S, according to calculations which are detailed down below.
Gait Quality
The Gait Quality grade allows you to see if your horse moves well, if their gaits are good.
In order to calculate a gait quality grade, we combine symmetry, regularity of the rhythm (at trot and at canter), as well as impulsion (at the 3 gaits). The goal is to have the best grades in all these categories!
Physical Condition
The Physical Condition Grade allows you to make sure that your horse is in a good shape!
To get the grade, we calculate the average heart rate at walk and trot + the recovery time. The lower the heart rate and the recovery time, the better the grade. Be careful though, a good score doesnt mean that you can stop exercising your horse!
Movement Health
Through this grade, we check that your horse has no issues when they move.
To calculate a movement health grade, we look at 2 points: symmetry and impulsion at a canter. A horse that struggles physically will see those indicators decrease!
Training Quality
Training quality allows you to check if your sessions are well built, intense and balanced enough.
To get the training quality grade, we look at the average time spent at a trot and canter, as well as the regularity of the rhythm at a trot and canter: the higher these points, the better the grade. We also check that there is a balanced distribution between left and right hand!
How to Put the Filters on
There are two types of filters:
- Filters for your horse (orange button)
- Filters for the community (blue button)
Either way, you just have to click on the right button to choose the filter.
Filters for your Horse
For your horse, you can apply the following filters:
- Time period: this allows you to choose a time frame (last month, 3 or 6 lasts months, or every session)
- Discipline: to only take into account the sessions of a specific discipline
- Rider: if you are many to ride the same horse, you can choose to keep only the sessions of one rider in particular
Filters for the Community
For the community, you can choose the following filters:
- The age of the horse (0-6 years old, 6-16, 16+)
- Breed type
You can also choose to compare your horses with each other, whether you own or lease them (if this horse is shared with you on the application). To do this, after clicking on the blue button, click on the tab "My Other Horses".
The filters you apply to your horse will automatically apply to the second horse you compare yourself to.
Breed Types
Some breeds have too few members on our app to make statistical sense. So we have chosen to group them by breed type first.
- Poneys
- Western Horses (Pinto, Quarter horse, Paint, other western horses)
- Sport Horses (BWP, Belgian sport horse, Hanoverian, Holsteiner, KWPN, Oldenburg, French Saddlebred, Trackener, Westfalen, other sport horses, Zangersheide)
- Thoroughbred and Racehorses (Anglo-Arabian, Arabian Thoroughbred, Halfblood, Other than thoroughbred, English Thoroughbred, French Trotter, other thoroughbred and race horses)
- Iberian Horses (Lusitano, Spanish purebred, other Iberian horses)
- Leisure Horses (Merens, Arabo-Friesian, Friesian, Irish Cob, Islandic, other leisure horses)
- Workhorses (Normand Cob, Percheron, Franches Montagnes, other workhorses)
