I second what Heidi said.  I have seen this happen more than once at  
ridecamp with electric fences and loose horses. Also, if they run  
into and break those PVC fences, it can leave a nasty jagged spear.

 I am able to put up and take down those twelve foot panels without  
help, although it is easier and much appreciated when I can get  
help.  When I first started endurance I had my mechanic weld metal  
"hooks" on the side of my trailer for them.  I can get three on a  
side and secure them with bungees.  if I have one horse I use three  
panels and the side of the trailer,  or six panels and the side of  
the trailer for a nice round pen for two horses. This works very well  
for me and my horses.
