Hi Joe,

I wanted to check and see if I am correct in assuming that if a horse is
panting (not blowing) it means he has already repaid his oxygen debt and has
begun the cooling process. It seems to me that this is indicative of a fit
horse form another perspective...that one not panting is still struggling to
repay the oxygen debt while the one panting has done this and gone on to
start the cooling process.
Yes? Or is this obvious as one is blowing and one is panting and the one
doing neither wins the race!!!! <g>
