[RC] Selling WEC horses - Steve ShawIt is sometimes funny and many times a joke reading what some of the full time, so called pundits put onto this forum.Before the horses left to go to Florida for training there was some serious inquiries into any of the top horses being for sale. Art Priesz sent all of the nominated horse owners a three page letter discussing the issue. He was very open wanting the best for the "Team" which won't be decided until the day before the race. But he also told everyone that they could make their own decisions and nothing would be held against them. The USEF staff and Art could have been a lot more restrictive, but thankfully this is the USA. I happen to know that a previously long/short? (actually the short list wasn't until they selected the six horses and three alternates) listed rider that no longer has their nominated horse to ride has made a VERY generous donation to USEF that now allows all of the WEC training riders, not on the squad of six, to go to crew at the WEC. Paying for flights, hotels and meals.... and more. This includes the Team Captain!
