Dabney,

	My husband's horse has one blue eye.  He has never had any problems with
his horse's (Buster) vision.  My husband has successfully competed Buster
and as a matter of fact Buster is the best trail horse in the barn.  He is
bomb proof and rarely (if ever) spooks.   Funny thing, people remember the
"one blue eye thing".  My husband has had people he doesn't even know come
up to him and ask him about Buster on some campouts and rides we've been
on.  The people remember Buster from before we ever owned him and we've had
him 5 years now.  I say go for it!  Could be the best endurance horse you
ever owned.  Good luck!  Kim in FL
