Re: [RC] Pull Codes - Stewart, CarrieI don't mean to be a downer but everything comes back to money and ego. Riders who have more to loose (business and clients) are the ones who feel stigmatized about the pull codes. As for me, I have no quams about pulling or being pulled for lameness if my horse takes a mis-step or is having a bad day and not recovering as well as he should. I would rather have my riding partner to ride with tomorrow. I ride because I like to and because my horse likes to. We are a partnership and if one of us is not feeling good and needs the time off then so be it. If you want to snicker and gossip about me that I never have a horse that finishes or that I override my horse then so be it. The vet, my horse and I (and God) know the truth... that is all that matters. Yes I care about doing well, I am very competitive by nature but I am not willing to pay a price, other than hard work, to get it.
