  I 
  believe that SUG is doing some research on this for us so we can recommend to 
  the BoD at the annual meeting. Correct me if I am wrong on 
  this.

    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!
