Horse Blood Results

Submission Form

A few hints for clients wishing to submit blood results for analysis/interpretation:

1) Take the blood early in the morning prior to exercise or feeding. The quieter and less upset the horse is, the more accurate the reading.

2) If drawing the blood yourself, allow it to run into the tube from needles rather than drawing the blood out under pressure and then squirting it into the tube as this damages the blood cells, altering the reading.

3) Keep the blood in a cool, dark place until it is delivered to the lab for processing .

4) Try to get the blood to the lab as soon as possible - within four hours.

For tests in Western Australia, if using Western Diagnostic Pathology, specimen MUST be in a yellow envelope or bag and marked "VETPATH" - and ask for a "McGregor blood" and request results be faxed to us.

Throughout Australia, check with your local clinic as we require the laboratory's 'normal' values and these may vary from lab to lab.

For tests in Singapore or Hong Kong, use The Singapore Racing Lab.
