 Tom Ivers, well known flat-track trainer,
 Thinks ENdurance feed's a no-brainer.
 Just pump up the carbs
 and ignore all the barbs
 And you'll win -- so what if he's lamer?

Joe,

You offered nothing of substance during the discussion and continue with
personal attacks once it's over. So, as an exercise in intelligent discourse,
name the horse that has been fed carbos during an endurance ride that is lamer
because of it. Name just one--anybody out there can name one for you, just in
case you have no experience whatsoever with the practice. 

Knee-jerk opinions are next to worthless--you're using up spit that might just
serve you well at the end of the next ride.
