High Heart Rate

Hello,

Anyone have any experience with a horse who has an extremely high
heart rate post-ride? My friend's horse looked great during the ride,
took a while to pulse down at the end of the 50, and immediately
spiked back up to around 100 bpm where he remains today, 2 days after
the ride. He has absolutely no other symptoms and is in great
spirits.

He is at the vet now, having tests performed but I was wondering if
anyone has seen anything like this...

Thanks for your help,

Layne Simmons
