Re: [RC] misuse of "Rider Option"? - Truman Prevatt
I know this is mandatory - and the RM will make sure you do it - in the
SE but I don't belive it is an AERC rule. If you think it should be a
rule - contact your directors.
I sure would not want to call it a day for whatever reason and not have
the vets take one last look.

The rides I've been to in Texas do this...at the ride
meeting the RM states that if the rider decides to pull RO, they still
have to have their horse looked at by a vet. I just think that makes
good sense...not to "catch" any people who might be trying to hide an
impending problem with their horse, but rather to make sure that the
welfare of the horse is placed first. It just makes sense for a vet to
take a look at a horse after it comes in off the trail, even if the
rider has already decided not to go on, for whatever reason.
