I have spent many years asking questions and have found that it is seldom the question is ever addressed in replies. Why is that?

I ask one, and only one, question. Which is most important, the horse's welfare or the humans ego? I do not get what you are trying to say. Are you a "Noble Savage" person who believes that in the natural state all is well? Personally, I think Kat's horse probably has a much easier life than the average mustang (horse in its natural state). I'd love to see a message board that hashed out every *natural* occurance nation wide. There are quite a few horses in my neighborhood who are on huge farms and pretty much left to nature. They don't look so hot, what with founder (self inflicted) abcesses that are left to run their course and end up causing all sort of problems... quite a few have died or are crippled...all having happened in fairly "natural" horse manner. I think if I were a horse I'd choose endurance as a career knowing what I know about all the options. I must be misunderstanding what you're saying though, since I know you have horses that have done lots of miles and can't imagine that you were less guilty of asking them for something "unatural" than Kat was. By the way, from what I've read, horses are unique in that they don't chew cud, etc. and are capable of eating concentrated rations and then delivering a good day's work.
