[RC] interesting ulcer article - Michelle Fink

It's online at TheHorse.com
http://www.thehorse.com/viewarticle.asp?fid=4141&dpt=5

They did a novel study using exercising horses and found that when the horse
moves faster than a walk, the gastric wall is contracted and stomach acids
get pushed higher up in the stomach, into more sensitive tissues which can
induce ulceration.

Any thoughts about it?

Happy Trails,
Michelle
