I am completely confused as to how all horses can be considered able to
essentially carry a HW rider. It seems unfair to the slighter-built
horse.

and Rem-member Me

>>I feel that in order to crown a national champion the rider must not
spot any riders more than 25-30 lbs. in a race. A rider/horse that wins
two Class A races must carry 190 lbs. in a championship race, if they
win three Class A races they must carry 200 lbs. in a championship race.
<snip> 6-10 place finishers picks up 3.5 lbs. for a maximun of 7 lbs..
This means that in a championship race the lightest weight would be 182
lbs............Now then WE HAVE A REAL CHAMPION !!!!!<<
