Re: FW: Re: [RC] [RC] Snotty nosed horses...Compete or not? - Joe LongOn Fri, 24 Feb 2006 20:42:21 -0600, "Ginny Holsman" <ginny744@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: I agree. The Vet Check is the place for a horse to be determined healthy enough to compete or not. It's the Vet's responsibility to disqualify any horse that is sick. Perhaps adding a Vet Check in advance would help, though -- that is, to even begin the race. That would certainly be simple to establish and accomplish. A pre-ride vet check the day before the ride (with late arrivals being vetted in the morning before the start) has been standard at all endurance rides for over 30 years. -- Joe Long jlong@xxxxxxxx http://www.rnbw.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
