Re: [RC] Longivity in Endurance Horses - rides2farBTW, was gently reminded of one more CMK horse among those with longevity--and that's the Perfect 10 Kahlil Khai! (Boy howdy, was the head cold and the Benadryl sapping my memory last night or what??) I wasn't especially clear in my poston longevity...didn't mean Les Carr's horses were not endurance bred, it was just somebody had mentioned his name. He's an example I think of a person who has longevity as the *primary* goal from the beginning whereas most of us tend to hope for a horse who will get us on down the trail pretty quickly, and *hope* that it has longevity. Thus, a horse that Les rides may last through more miles more because of the way it's ridden than so much because of the way it was bred. Kahlil is the perfect example of a horse that had longevity despite being ridden up front. I am going to meet a woman Monday who was given my name as "a lady who actually *does* endurance!" She's got a couple of mustangs and I hope to mentor her into the sport. She's all excited about it, so I've been trying to pay special attention to these posts that mention mustangs, etc. Angie =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
