[RC] gaited horses, pulses and stuff - Karen WilliamsI ride a coming 5-year old Paso Fino and let me tell you .... his pulse shoots up to 210 at the drop of a hat! Mostly at the beginning of a ride when he's out by himself. He's pretty green so I'm hoping its just nerves. Once out on the trail, his pulse goes down to a range that doesn't make me want to faint. The funny thing is that without the heart monitor I'd never know his pulse was so high. He doesn't act jumpy or high-strung at all -- he's just looking around and my watch is going beep beep beep beep................. and not a cannon in sight.
