RE: [RC] steves' remark seeing Paladin on the trail again - Jim HollandStart what? Angie, how about not taking my post out of context? I simply made a statement and asked for details. Please read the last two sentences. You're jumping to conclusions...as maybe Dian Woodward also is, but lets not go back to "sweeping it under the rug". "Why was it "terrible"? It's what happens when you put "win" above "horse welfare". It ain't pretty. However, how about some "facts"? Would like to see some details and input from people who were "there".

It's what happens when you put "win" above "horse welfare". It ain't pretty. Don't you EVEN start! Taking somebody else's bad fortune and using it to boost you up on your soap box... Maybe it's what happens when somebody other than the horse's rider starts deciding what electrolytes to give on race day! The ONLY time I'd dare consider pointing a finger is when a person has shown a PATTERN of disregard for their horse's welfare, because there's no way to remove *all* risk. I have never, ever heard anyone take Bev's name in vain. She didn't get this far taking his health for granted.
