I, too, applaude the the hard work by the Horse Welfare Committee.
This issue is of vital importance to AERC and for the safety of our horses
and they stepped up to the plate. Good Job!

I think this is relevant...and might produce a pattern.
Why not? Can't
hurt, might help.
Hi Jim, I,
too, think this information is relevant. SPEED, the way John T broke
it down at the PAC, is certainly an indication of a rider's mindset relative
to what the Vet Check might reveal. Do I speed up this next leg,
do I slow down? John T. did a
great job of illustrating that in his PAC ride results. It is information
on the vet cards...length of loop, how long did it take, how long to recover,
etc. Should be factored in.
NOTE: Jim Mitchell and Laura Hayes are quality human beings who are
doing something important here. Where I talk a good game, they actually
said, "Hey COACH, put us in." Good on ya!
