RE: [RC] [RC] More on 100 mile riders - Nancy Mitts

Mike,

I didn't take time to look at the graph, but seems I remember there is a bit of a glitch in the horse records for the years of the champ. series rides.  It double counts the entries, but not the completions. Not sure if that affects the graph or not.
