Re: [RC] Are you sure/Angie? & Buckets - Truman Prevatt
If anyone is looking for a 100 miler to give a horse religion - forget
it. I won't work and it will have the opposite effect! After I started
doing 100's with the mare - she got more bull headed and harder to rate
- not easier. After I started doing 100's on her I had more than one
run away (not really a run away in the normal terms) where she just
felt good and wanted to run and by golly that's what we were going to
do. She wasn't running from anything or to anyplace she just felt good
and wanted to run, "hang on dad."
After we stated doing 100's she started doing faster 50's - in some
cases a lot faster. I sometimes had a say in how fast and then I
sometimes didn't.
So don't look for 100's giving them religion. As Angie says it makes
them stronger - a lot stronger ;-).

Don't bother worrying about cloning Kaboot. Sounds like you already have. >g< I'll just give you one discouraging bit of advice. 100 milers didn't give him one bit of religion. They just made him stronger. :-P
