Re: RC: Help! My horse won't eat!

	It's not really what your horse will eat or not eat, its why.  
Horse's traveling are either stressed or anxious about something.  The best 
way to solve this problem is to stick with it and do it more.  Ride slowly 
and make the trip a pleasure as best as you can.  When at home, part of 
conditioning, is practicing pretend endurance rides.  Go with buckets and 
supplements just like you would do at going to a real ride.  Make these short 
trips close to home, even if you just trailer one - two miles away from the 
barn.  Until then I wouldn't try and add to much speed to your real rides.  
Part of endurance is getting through all this stuff.  Best of Luck!
