RE: [RC] 60, 64 pulse - heidi

In my experience, the absolute recovery has at least as much as the CRI.  A good carpenter has more than one tool in the toolbox--and so does the astute ride vet.

I would much rather see a hold in the middle of the ride long enough to
have an "exit CRI" to catch horses that were not recovering than relying
on a lower pulse when the horse vets through - which is usually at the
beginning at least in most rides I've done. I just don't see a simple
lowering of the pulse criteria having much merit. I sure see an exit CRI
at a critical point a much smarter choice.
