RE: [RC] Uzes - Young Horses Finals - heidi

Even USA breeders of endurance horses still have to deal with the  
cast offs (not every horse bred for endurance will be a good  
endurance horse). That is the nature of breeding - especially  
breeding for racing performance.



This is the crux of it, though--breeders in the USA CANNOT make a go of it, 
precisely because they are not supported by the riders, who are willing to go 
through a bunch of cheaper cast-offs (although they usually spend more money in 
the long run than they would if they bought one good one).  

It's true that not every horse bred for the sport is superlative--but the vast 
majority of them are sound, sane competitors, and the odds of getting a 
superlative one are incredibly higher.
