The List:

Animal Husbandry (general horse care and physical and mental health):

Rider--good rider can be good for the horse in this sense.  Bad, opposite.

Trainer--same analysis.  If u walk ur shed row and the horses look like stall babies instead of athletes, likely there are significant trainer problems.

Nutrition
      --for health
      --for performance

General Environment:
     --Stall, Stall bedding--is it appropriate and sufficiently deep and dust free--stall door/walls in terms of apparatus and horse vice prevention
     --Fan placement so horse can get away from the air
     --Stable noise
     --Appropriate turnout.
     --Appropriate socialization--do these young herd animals really have to be isolated from each other?
     --Appropriate rest time and sleep
