... Then, in that sense it would probably be fair to say that the "low" number of horses that achieve 3000 miles is directly related to the decline of 100s.......
I could not agree to that concept in the slightest. The prime reason(s) I see are number one "the throw-away horse" and then the lack of resolution to...
... But I think you need to consider Heidi's math that, doing only 50s a rider has to do 6 rides/year for 10 years... I grant you the "throw away" part with...
With 100's you trade the extra miles for the fact you have to drive all over hell's half acre to get many of them. This takes time and time is probably the...
