racehorse swimming exercise

Question
hello sir, how many times a week a thoroughbred racehorse should be given swimming exercise?

Answer
HI IT DEPENDS ON WHAT KIND OF SHAPE THE HORSES ARE IN. A SORE GOING HORSE SHOULD SWIM EVERY OTHER DAY AND THEN GALLOP EVERY OTHER DAY.. ALTERNATE FROM DAY TO DAY. REMEMBER YOU CANNOT JUST SWIM A HORSE FIT, IT DOESN'T WORK, YOU MUST GALLOP ALSO WHEN TRAINING A HORSE TO RACE.  THANKS.. ED HESS
