Re: [RC] May 2007 Veterinary newsletter - Beth Walker

It would be RO-M? or RO-L. ? ?RO by itself is for something wrong with the rider.

From the article:??

" Similar to the RO code, RO-L and RO-M codes are to?
be used only if the veterinarian has examined and passed?
the horse as fit to continue. If the horse has passed the?
veterinary exam yet the rider decides their horse is not?
right due to either a lameness or metabolic issue, then?
the RO-L or RO-M codes should be used.?"

sanctioned rides are to be examined by a control vet regardless if?
the rider is electing not to continue) and the horse must be?
deemed fit to continue in order to use this code."

I have pulled my horse twice, after she was examined and the vet said she
was "Fit to Continue", but I didn't feel she was fit (she was just "off" and
not quite herself).? I pulled her, and there was nothing wrong with
me...what's that called?? I call it Rider Option.
