Abstract
Babesiosis was diagnosed in a three-year-old racing Thoroughbred colt with recurrent, intermittent fever, poor performance, malaise, and one occasion of diarrhea. Other signs included congestion of mucous membranes and petechial hemorrhages of conjunctival mucous membranes. Babesia caballi and B. equi were identified on blood smear, when the colt had fever. The colt was treated with Imidocarb (4 mg/kg four times at 72 intervals) and returned to regular exercise and competition four months after treatment. The colt and two other horses which showed babesial infection had been transported from Turkmen district to Mashhad city.
