I'd take any of my "unconditioned" herd members who all average
resting heart rates of 26 & 28 over other horse breeds (I posted that
heart rate info a few months ago - went out & listened to the whole
herd one day).  Gee, Truman, you make it sound like no Arabian ever
had a 26 resting heart rate. Come on over to our place with your heart
monitor & see for yourself.  Low Arabian heart rates
happen.  Lif
