Don't be scared off by the posts you are seeing lately. Sometimes we
endurance riders get ranting and raving about something and this is one of
those cases. Proportionally few horses actually have the cramping problem,
but obviously when you have one of those horses, you want to find out what
to do about it. Chances are your horse will be fine. Just go out and find
out your horse's potential, enjoy the trails, ride a reasonable pace, and
learn as much as possible along the way. Go ahead and try a competition, it
really is a blast, and don't worry TOO much about what COULD go wrong.
