[RC] A Much Better Proposal - k s swigartJim Holland said: "If John Jones and Dobbin get a metabolic pull, then Dobbin cannot compete in another ride for a month. If Dobbin gets a 2nd metabolic pull, he is done for the year. If John Jones on ANY horse gets 3 metabolic pulls in a ride season, he is done for the rest of that season." I, personally, think this is a much better proposal for ensuring the welfare of horses; although I would change it slightly such that it would be John Jones who cannot compete on Dobbin in another ride for a month or a year (somebody else may be able to better manage Dobbin during a ride). However, if Dobbin gets three pulls under any rider, then it should, indeed, be Dobbin who has to take the break. kat Orange County, Calif. :) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
