    Abstract:
    During 20 weeks blood constituents in peripheral blood (Erythrocyte count, Packed cell volume, Hemoglobin, Sedimentation rate, activities of Aspartate aminotransferase, Alanine aminotransferase, Creatine phosphokinase, Lactate dehydrogenase, Lactate dehydrogenase-1-isoenzyme, Glucose, Lactate, Total bilirubin), pulse and respiration rate were determined at rest and after exercise. Significant increase of blood values after exercise could be noted in relation to the intensity of exercise and the performance of the animals. The well trained horses had an increase of their performance according the tendency of the blood values, some horses had a high activity of enzymes as a result of muscle cell damage. Differences between Mules and Haflinger horses according their performances could be noted.
