Ridecamp: Re: [RC] Old horse BC

It's what I've always said was the reason my old guy was so young looking,
muscular and athletic, even at the age of 35 ... because of the sport. He
was retired at the age of 15 and if any of us had known better way back
then, he should have just kept going. I actually started to campaign him
again when he was 17 but I got pregnant and didn't continue. By the time I
thought about it again he was over 20. Both our losses. Hooray for the old
guys!
