Re: [RC] Age of horse and first 100 ride - Jody Rogers-Buttram

15 isn't too old...just ask Angie.  Angie's borrowed mount, Aries, did her first 100 at 15. (she actually did it better than the two younger horses)   Now at 16, she will be carrying Angie again thru the Biltmore and the OD 100's !!!!!!!   (We hope )  :))

You lucky dog. Sounds like you've got TWO 100 mile horses. Better hit ALL the rides to get the good out of them...or you can just do like Jody...let a friend ride the other one along with you. :-))
