  "  The rule still stands that each ride
     is a separate event, and an individual ride manager CAN still ban a 
     horse and/or rider from their ride for cause. So any ride manager that

     has witnessed unsafe behavior from a horse and/or rider at their ride 
     last year, still has the right to ask that horse and/or rider not to 
     return, OR to allow it to compete but disqualify it for bad behavior 
     should it arise. "
Doe's this mean that the ride manager can ban a person with a known
dangerous horse when they come in to sign up for the ride ? Or do they have
to wait for an incident to happen and then ban the rider/horse ? If it does
mean that the manager can ban the horse/rider before the ride even starts
then why are you managers cancelling your rides ? Why don't you just wait
and see if the horse/rider even shows up at your rides and then don't let
them compete ? Why punish everyone for just basically one horse/rider team
?
