Re: [RC] Endurance - longevity bloodlines... - rides2far

What are some bloodlines known for producing  endurance horses with 
longevity??

I believe it was Kat who pointed out that 2 of Les Carr's crossbreds & a
mustang showed great "longevity" indicating that there's possibly a
higher percentage of horses who stand the test of time outside the Arab
breed, considering the percentage of Arabs involved in the sport. Is it
possible that *people who don't ride for speed* are what increases the
longevity, and they're more likely to be the types to compete a non Arab?
I don't know about the mustang rider in particular, but isn't Les pretty
much a "completion only" kind of guy?
