This sounds a little different if I understand you correctly. At
most of our rides, the 'gate into a hold' means that your hold does
not even begin until the pulse is down to whatever criteria is
defined before the ride begins (usually 60). So conceivably a
horse could spend much more time at the hold if he his slow
to recover. As with your system, if a horse does not recover
within 30 minutes he is pulled.

Another question - how consistent are the 'policies' across
Europe?

Desiree - how about Holland?

South Africa? Australia?
