I've made this same statement before. For
some reason i was appointed to the first AERC Active Riders Committee and i
proposed that ride cards be used in determining selection. I was not in
popular sentiment at the time and the idea was rejected. I was not
nominated the next year.
I still think that data is important in analyzing a
horse/rider history. It is full of relevant information including Vet
notes. I still stand by this years later and think those that find no
importance to vet cards have either no vision or analytical expertise.
