This makes me think about the 4 year olds doing 5
day ld multidays. With this new trend to add ld's on all the same days as
the 50 mile multidays it concerns me that these young horses would be
worked this hard. Do you all really think that a 4 year old should go
out day after day after day doing 25 or 30 milers? I think the age
limit should be increased but only for horses doing multi
days. What do you all think is a reasonable amount of competition miles
for a 4 yr old in multiday competition? Is a 2 day 50 alright? What
about a 3 day 75 or a 4 day 100 miler? I think this is pushing a young
horse too soon. Just my $.02 worth!
