Re: RC: Opinion on front base narrow Arab

[Laney Humphrey <laneyh@mbay.net>]

Kathy, I would have the horse inspected by a vet and farrier to make sure it
isn't going to trip itself when ridden consistently.  Some base narrow horses
cross their feet and are really dangerous; others don't and are fine.  I'd
also wonder if she hasn't been ridden a lot because she does trip herself.
