Re: Horse Height

Try telling that to Ruby, the 17 hand mule who got third and BC at the
last Tevis.

You won't know until you tried it.

More than half the performance at the ride is down to training and
conditioning. Most of the rest of it is in the mind. Breeding, feeding
and so forth can make a difference, more so if it's done wrong than
anything else.
