RE: [RC] LD/Endurance - heidiI call BS. I'd like to see you get my 20+ QH/draft mix through a 25. He's 16h, huge, has been ridden once in over a year, and poops out after about 5-6 miles of walking. He is sound - no lameness issues. Sure, David, there are limits. I worked on several halter QH/APHAs in my repro practice that might have had difficulty with this statement, too. But the statement is true for the average healthy, sound, non-geriatric riding-breed horse. And I've vetted enough of these horses through 25s to vouch for Barbara's statement. And to repeat--no one is RECOMMENDING this--only pointing it out as a dividing line. Stating a truth does not make it a good idea.
