    [RC] P&R Question - KimFue

    I went to a ride this week end which held a R&T and endurance ride.  The endurance and limited distance ride had 64 criteria while the R&T had a 72 criteria.  Can anyone tell me why a 72 recovery is OK/safe for a R&T horse going about 25 miles but not OK/safe for an endurance/limited distance horse going the same distance.  I know this is pretty common but I guess it struck me as odd because the horses were basically running in the same weather conditions and through the same terrain.
