Dr Verdergaal was awarded the 2025 EVA John Bourke Literary Prize for this paper. This award is open to primary authors who are not members of EVA, and have published a paper in The Australian Equine Veterinarian during the previous 12 months. The paper should be of high scientific merit and of interest to the practicing equine veterinarian, but the information does not have to be novel.
