Introduction: Chinas domestic horses established the foundations for commerce, communication, and state infrastructure along the old Silk Road in China [1] As trade patterns changed, the use of horses changed from trade to a sport and recreation. Chinas modern equestrian business has developed significantly over the previous decades, and the expansion between 2015 and 2020 is essential, as China implements further policies to aid in the development of modern equestrianism.
