Sherman, that's how I interpreted the photo.  The rider look serene and 
content, the horse looked eager.  I saw mud and sweat, not wounds, on the 
legs.  My only thought was the horse looked like he might have been a 
cross-bred, but Lynne says she knows the rider and the horse and assures 
that the horse is truly purebred.  I owned a horse that was purebred and he 
didn't look particularly Arab at all, so they do come in all kinds of 
packages.

I also felt like the ad was showing "real riding" as opposed to someone
all spiffed up & posing for the pic. I looked at the marks on the
pasterns as mud and sweat. Sort of like saying you can get down and
dirty with a tough Arab! And the look on the rider's face told me she
was determined to keep moving on. JMO

Frank,

I agree with your comments. I finally located my copy of EN to see it
for myself and also wondered what was all the fuss. I thought the horse
and rider looked like they were have a good time. I felt it depicted
"real" action shot instead of the ones I see in the Arabian horse
magainzine where they have vasoline around their eyes, paint on the
hooves and have been shaved down to the skin.
