[RC] FITS Saturday 50 and win 75 Fri - rides2far@xxxxxxxx

Down here at FITS, having a little trouble with network connection but it's up 
now. I have to top 14 in the 50. There are more in now but I've been struggling 
with this connection for a while.

It's upper 80's HOT, lots of trace clipped hairy horses, very strong sun but a 
good breeze. I walked out on trail a ways and it's fairly soft. Lots of horses 
have been through.  The front runner horses on the 50 left the last check at a 
full gallop. Jeremy Olson was in the lead but Tom Hutchinson riding Theatric 
passed him and finished 8 minutes ahead. However, Theatric had trouble after 
the ride and did not receive a completion. Tom's time was 3:46 so Jerry's 
official win time was 3:54  Loops were 20, 15, 15 with 2 50 min. holds.

I've seen quite a few horses trotting lame, some at vet in. I think the long 
haul may have taken its toll. There are trailers here from Ohio, Maine, Texas, 
Iowa and everywhere in between. Bummed riders who have no idea why they have a 
lame horse.

The sun is pretty brutal and I sure wouldn't want to be a heavy coated horse 
trying to work that deep sand tomorrow.

I'm trying to get a read out that includes the horse names but the poor women 
in the sign up tent are burried in bright red FEI tape. I was amazed just how 
many forms it took to get Josie signed into the 50 for tomorrow.  

OK, this was all they could give me right now and couldn't stretch my luck or 
I'll get thrown out all together:
