Didn't our German ridecamp friend Frank Mechelhof (sp) describe a problem
like this with his mare? Frank, are you out there? What did you find with
your horse? I've never seen this myself, and would suspect a "mechanical "
problem in the works... even if it can't be seen yet. A hanging heartrate
usually indicates trouble brewing somewhere.......
