Re: [RC] A sad story for AERC - SusanMy first impression is THANK YOU, Amber, for speaking the truth! Remember, he's not the first to think he and his horse are "all that". It is VERY possible a vet will get his number. The HRM thing is humorous! Ignorance will show itself if he's over riding his horse. He could have the best horse at that ride that day...but I'm thinking he's talking about the LA Gumbo (the first C.R. 2-day ride coming up). If so, there are PLENTY of conditioned and experienced "hot shoes" there that'll give him an education! LD is NOT a race and the clock is there because there is a time limit. Just the same, these riders around
here, both LD and endurance, can teach a person ALL about "racing". It is my sincerest desire his horse doesn't pay the price for his education. Other than that, there's nothing we can say to him that'll make him think any differently. Susan [Young], The Princess of Pink Semper Obliquo (Always aside) Glenndale Grace Farm, Ft Gibson, Oklahoma U.S.A. "Ride on! Rough-shod if need be, smooth-shod if that will do, but ride on! Ride on over all obstacles, and win the race!" - Charles Dickens (1812-1870)
