RE: [RC] 50's compaired to 25's compared to 100's - Alison Farrin

Which is also true of 50 milers when a 75 or 100 is involved.  The horse going 
the farthest gets to vet first.
Common courtesy, not discrimination.

SandyDSA@xxxxxxx said.... I have found it  usual to
be set aside in favor of the longer distance riders, and indeed have  been 
TOLD
that this is because they are going twice the distance and therefore  are
most important. Generally this is true - not always - but certainly 
indicates a
    higher level of importance put on the horses going the longer 
distances...


At many rides here in the NW we do try to get 50 milers through the vet 
check and sometimes will give priority to a 25 mile completion exam.  We 
try to keep the people who are continuing the ride moving through the 
system, but when I do traffic at a vet check also try not to let any of the 
LD wait to long, they have worked hard as well and get my respect for doing 
so.  This is really the only time that I have noticed a preferance given to 
longer distances as compaired to LD.  I have ridden both and never felt 
that I was treated as a lesser rider.
