Mean 25-OHD3 values were <2 ng/ml in 20 stabled Thoroughbreds (samples between November and January), 11 horses at grass (September), and 11 stabled horses (July-October). Respective 25-OHD2 values were 5.1, 4.7 and 4.6 ng/ml. The 25-OHD3 values were lower than those in housed sheep on a vitamin D-deficient diet. Further studies are recommended.
