Re: [RC] - Karen Sullivan

Confined how? With limited exercise?  i can;t imagine anyone taking a
confined fit horse and running it hard....it would be a certain
recipie for a tie up....right?

As for manners and safety, I'm sorry but if a horse is too much of an
amped up idiot to stand for P and R and vet check......without putting
the P and R person or vet at risk for their life; then maybe the horse
should not be in that situation.  Don't we hammer at the newbies and
25 milers that their horses have to be behaved for the vet, and don't
they get scolded by some of the vets if the horses don;t submit safely
for an exam?  Why kind of hypocrosy is it to put a more stringent set
of rules on newbies than those experienced at the sport?

As usual most everything Bruce Weary said is correct, the one thing he left
out was these USA horses were mostly confined for 5 weeks before the race. I
dare anyone to confine a fine tune fit Arab for 5 days then expose it to
some excitment and see what happens. Can,t believe this even needs an
explaination. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH TRAINING!!!!! JVM
