Still does not address WHY the rider felt the horse should not continue.  
This is NOT about placing blame--it is about learning why endurance horses 
don't complete.  Sorry, but if my horse does not eat AND if I feel it is 
sufficiently significant to not continue, I will gladly report to the vet 
that that is why I am pulling.  Furthermore, *I* will know, the vet will 
know, ride management will know, and the horse will know that I did the right 
thing.  Who gives a hang about having an "M" published next to his name in 
EN?  Reputations are not made or lost based on a one-line pull listing in a 
publication.
