[RC] 30 vs 60 minutes at finish? - stephanie teeter

Regarding a potential AERC rule change: from 60 minutes to reach criteria, to 30 minutes to reach criteria - at the finish

(these are comments I've heard so far)

Pro-
1. standardize rules for EN and LD
2. standardize re FEI and other countries
3. disincentivize racing to finish
4. identify horses with elevated pulses 30 minutes after finish

Con -
1. logistical (time) difficulties of dealing with finish line distanced from vet area
2. 'hassle' for riders of rushing after the ride
3. change from norm

more?

Steph
