[RC] NSH in endurance - kc85124

I have ridden half-saddlebreds in endurance for 15 yrs.  Raised them myself 
from my arab stallion and saddlebred mare.  I found them to do very well in 
endurance especially on the really tough hilly rides.  Mine tended to get all 
hyped up and would over do if they were on a flat ride where they could see 
other horses for miles.  Because of this trait I made sure they were in great 
condition before I ever took them to a ride.  Until I started riding arabs in 
endurance I never realized what an advantage I had with the NSH's fast trot I 
used to think the people behind me were just walking a lot more. HA!  Now I'm 
less competative and enjoy my arab's laid back attitude and willingness to 
settle in anywhere and take care of himself.  I started endurance back when you 
didn't need a "trained" horse so won many rides only because I couldn't get the 
half-saddlebreds to slow down enough. HA!  If I had the chance to get another 
NSH trained by a good trainer I would jump at the chance th
ough.  I loved riding them and still enjoy riding my old gelding.  Happy 
Trails, Kathy
