Now, isn't that nice?  A one probably-anonymous-rat report, we'll see 
if this address from your post bounces as bad.

Perhaps you shouldd review Kat's ride record at http://www.aerc.org and 
track her top ten finishes as well as any metabolic pulls?

Consider that the ride she had a horse treated at is so difficult that 
the ride flyer is written so as to discourage anyone who doesn't have a 
conditioned horse?  And that there were less than 40 entries?

It never fails to amaze me how people can leap to judgement without 
doing any research at all.

Kat doesn't need me to defend her, however, ridecamp is viewed by 
*thousands*, and defamation like this doesn't have to stand undefended 
for a day or until she can reply herself.

And "shit" can happen, any time, to anybody including the back of the 
pack riders.  I only hope your horse is lucky.
