I'm still trying to figure out this comment?

The machines are heavily regulated and inspected (although a bit less so at the lower levels). The drivers and teams *are* living beings at all levels...

Nicely said Glimmer. Open communication such as with Barbaro would go so much further than the FUD that is flying around now by uninformed media anxious to make their mark.

I'd have to disagree. The official racing chart listed the track as fast; that is not ankle deep in mud.

According to my math... 200 x 10 is 2000 not 20000....

I have scoliosis and love my Schleese Wave. At World Cup a few years ago I sat in just about every saddle there was. My Feldenkrais practitioner gave the node to the Schleese based on how my back...

Which would be fine with me and you'd be missing a great deal on my mare :D

(and no, she's not for sale...)

Sancudo,

I have scoliosis as well (and sounds very similar to yours although the offset of hip to shoulder may not be quite as much - but also the hip "rotation" as well).

I have been going to...

I think the point was you mentioned turnout first when might indicate you think that is most important (you do mention order didn't indicate importance but I think order may have an implied order of...

Sigh... I'm still thinking he'd make a really fancy gelding... finished 4th (no race commentary up yet...).

Until the seller decides to try to sue you for costing them a sale...

Keeping your mouth shut is probably the safest action (although may not be the kindest to the potential buyer).

MYOB.

You have no idea what conversations have been had between seller and potential buyers that may have actually disclosed the lameness.

eventmom, what is telling the seller that you will be...

Phaxxton, I don't believe this is a constitutional issue (not sure which amendment you'd be thinking had been violated).

But, you are absolutely correct that changes need to be made through the...

I also think one point that people are missing is that yes, the ammi with the video on youtube may not be making any money and did not intend to make money; but posting the "freebie" video may be...

I have heard of shows/events where the "official" show photographer has informed other photographers to cease taking pictures; even if the pictures being taking were for personal use. It has...

Godspeed John Henry...

This is fine as long as you realize that PETA's purpose is to shock your sensibilities and ...

The Kosher method of slaughter is a very old method used by the Jewish faith. It may not be...

Shannon, so, so sorry to hear the loss of your beloved mare.

She will be waiting for you...

Fiat Lux,

This is something I specifically talked to my insurance company about before I took out the mortality policy. They have someone on call 24 hours a day and told me that someone usually...

That's funny because I really like Mary... I'd be talking to her about that if I were you.



I could easily see how Bill and Judy could run hot or cold toward someone but I usually got along...

And LarkspurCO, I'm dying to know which consignment tack store and if it was an employee or the owner :eek:

I don't know about slapping but I think I would have ended that conversation a lot...

And from his score that might not have been the only "moment" in the test :D
(an 86.8).

Gee, seems like just over a year ago I started this thread with close to the same headline...

The Green Monkey won't start at Saratoga (yet again)...
...

Glimmerglass... don't know quite enough about racing to know if :38 3/5 is a good time for a first official move in 8 months - I know it's not real fast in general but for his length of layoff is it...

IMO, I wouldn't use a shotgun unless it was totally the last resort. Can you find access to a handgun of some caliber? A .22 would be enough (that's what my old vet would use). I'm thinking any...

I have been one of those snot nosed judges, albeit one that does know something about horses and eventing... (let's see... last Saturday, first horse on course at 7:30am, last horse on course at...
