I believe that a championship ride whether it be a Pan Am or the Worlds 
should be a challenging ride.  Not just a fast ride.  Endurance encompasses 
more than just fast horses.  I believe a true champion is one that has 
brought their horse thru a challenging course, sound and fit to continue with 
the best time.......

It is too bad that the worlds are gearing towards the flat races, I much 
rather see a championship ride have some challenging terrain in the course.

Of course this is just my opinion.
