While I am enjoying the carbo charging thread, and have no personal
experience with it, I do agree with the fact that endurance and even CTR
horses love to go. My mare would rather get back on the trail and see what's
around the next bend even if it would kill her. She has a big heart, and
that's been my biggest managment with her is to watch out for herself. She
could care less about grass or anything else but the trail at most rides.
