    Summary
    No differences in proportion of maiden plus barren (96%) compared to foaling (86%) mares ovulating within 2 days was found (P > .10); therefore, responses for all mares were combined for analysis.

    Summary · context
    On Tuesday or Thursday, mares in estrus with uterine edema, a relaxed cervix, and a dominant follicle ≥30-mm diameter were alternately assigned to treatment with 0.5 mg of intramuscular (IM) histrelin (group 1) or 0.25 mg IM histrelin (group 2).
