Trail Blazer Articles

[Kimberly Price <PLOUGH1@ix.netcom.com>]

Just got my Trail Blazer and read some very good and informative
articles in it, from people on this list.  S.P.Taylor park is part of
our training grounds and a great area to visit...nice work Connie!  If
anyone just has to come visit this area after reading this article, give
me a call!  I havn't gotten to Angela's article yet but I did get to Tom
Ivers.  He writes about work and recovery days in the conditioning
schedule.  Anyone else read it yet?

I must admit I'm a bit unclear on the recovery days.  He says recovery
days are not days with no work, but not more than 1/3 of the total
weeks' work.  So how many days of no work (and being in pasture) is
allowed between work and recovery days in this scenario?  Or did I miss
something? Tom, if you are reading this stuff, should a horse be allowed
any time of NO WORK in your conditioning schedule? (once again, pasture,
not stall).
