EST OF ENDURANCE AND COURAGE
The Marathon is a real test of endurance and courage. There is strict veterinary supervision before, during and again on finishing with all horses having to pass a final veterinary inspection.

The midway Vetgate is filled with excitement. No sooner do the spectators see the horses start on the first circuit and have a chance to catch their breath, than the first competitors are seen near the end of the course. The vetgate is the place where you can win or lose. Bring the horse in with a perfect pulse rate and you can jump ahead. There is much excitement and tension at this stage and the public have a good chance to participate fully in this.

The ride is divided into sections, with different names (legs, phases, etc.), depending on sanctioning organization. After each phase, horses are stopped for a veterinary inspection (sometimes called a "vetgate"), where they are checked for soundness and dehydration, with their pulse and respiration taken. To continue the ride, the horse must pass the examination, including reducing its heart rate below that specified for the event, typically 64 bpm, although terrain and weather may require the ride veterinarians to set a different maximum target. The riders' time keeps running until their horses reach the required target, so it is important that the horses recover as soon as possible. Any horse deemed unfit to continue (due to lameness or excessive fatigue, for example) is eliminated from further competition
