Ridecamp: RE: [RC] Protecting Horses

I like that idea Steve except for the finish line idea for 50-100 miles. It
still should be first across the line and then vet through after.

One way to protect the horses from being overridden is to lower the PR
rates, or enforce respiration stronger, or to add PR gates. You don't
HAVE to have vets at a PR gate, it can simply be a stop and go and it
would slow the pace down.

Another thing would be to add a PR gate at the finish line, like many of
the LD's do. Then the first place horse would be the one PR'ing first.

Any other thoughts?
