The horse has a prominent role in the history of mankind being used for various activities such as work, sport and play. However, these animals can be affected by diseases, especially parasitic infections, so it requires attention to health and wellness. This study aimed to carry out an epidemiological survey of worms in horses of sport and leisure in the city of Sinop - MT, analyzing a possible relationship of parasitic diseases with altered blood count and biochemistry-serum. We evaluated 49 horses, clinically healthy, without distinction of race and gender, from 4 properties. Blood samples were collected by jugular vein puncture using syringes (10 mL) and 40 x 12 needle, two drops containing EDTA for complete blood count, and without EDTA for serum biochemistry. Feces were collected directly from the rectum with examination gloves. It can be concluded, as the results obtained in this study, parasitism framework was low, with only two animals showed OPG over 500 eggs. However, these animals remained within the hematology reference values cited in the literature.
