[RC] Metabolic pulls - Lysane Cree

What are some of the things to keep in mind if riding
a  QH type of horse. I know that if they have a lot of
muscling then they will need more aggressive cooling
on hot days because they retain more heat...but would
such a horse require more e-lytes as well? And what
are ways to avoid tying up, apart from making sure
you've done your LSD training and are not overriding?

< In the beginning of my "endurance career" I rode a
<half arab/qh who was 
<"heavy to the QH" and I learned from her a few very
<important things 
<about metabolics and horses...she was my first and
only (knock on wood)metabolic pull.
