Re: RC: Re: pulse down as finish

["Nancy Mitts" <mitts_n@hotmail.com>]

The big problem with using the pulse down at the finish is that in order to 
be truly fair you would have to have an official P&R person (all with 
equally good hearing & experience) on each horse as it finished the ride. A 
group of fit horses arriving together could conceivably drop so close 
together there would be no way to place them. They certainly wouldn't be 
spaced out enough for just a couple of PR people to cover it. In our area we 
just don't have that amount of ride staff.
