The horses were judged on how fast they could recover to 56 after a long hard climb. I may be wrong about the water not being available, but I don't seem to remember any. They lose points based on how high their heartrate is above 48 10 minutes after arriving at the P&R/vet check. A heartrate of 48 after 10 minutes loses no points; a heartrate over 64 (usually -- the vets set the hold criteria before the ride starts) after 10 minutes results in a mandatory 10 minute hold and a bunch of points off. Most P&R stops have water nearby. Lynn Kinsky, Santa Ynez, CA http://www.silcom.com/~lkinsky/ http://www.dslextreme.com/~napha/JoyOfRiding/index.htm
