duck and run
There is a (another) rider in the SE that
would agree with this. Her horse Clypso Dancer has been winning just
about everything in sight.

peggy, i think you will be in for a very pleasant surprise when you get
going with that andalusian/arab cross. i have a nine year old mare
that is the same cross. i think the andalusian blood is
a great, but little used ingredient for the endurance
horse. the arab side is spanish arab. she has done a couple of
50s and is really doing well. time will tell, but i think we are
really onto something with this cross. (dont let my secret out, though)
:-) i have a really nice weanling colt on the ground too, by my
andalusian stallion and a polish bred arab mare.
