We are coming very dose to the date of the trip to Ottawa for the Grade eights Lets folk about HORSES with Jennifer A very horsey friend has taken exception to some of the hints I gave a couple of weeks ago on conditioning for endurance riding He has enduranceridden for years and has trophies to his credit The part that caught his eye was my advice to allow six weeks riding for a mile competitive ride He contends that a lot of horses are over with this much riding and that he has placed high on a horse that had only been ridden for about two weeks prior to a ride Ive also heard of a person doing well on a horse ridden for a mere four days before the event He maintains a horse should be up to a good 10 mile ride the first time out in the spring and that a five mile WALK would bore him to tears He also disagreed with the necessity for feeding a vitamin mineral preparation saying his horse performed well on grass and oats alone So much for the other side Now for my answer The vet I contacted felt that it was pure common sense to work up to something gradually rather than rush into it otherwise there Is a danger of causing your horse to contract Axoturia disease affecting the croup muscles Who can say what strain is put on a horse a legs heart and lungs by too much exertion too soon Some hones do take less time to get Into the peak of condition than others but until you have endurance ridden your many tunes and really know him you had better take It slow and steady As for the necessity of a vitamin supplement if your performs well on hist oats think how much better he would do with agon extra vitamins 8b my stand remains firm If youre new at the game prepare By Mrs Fred Mac An evening hymn song service will be held next Sunday evening May at clock In

and wish to ride him English at first with a possible changeover to Western later on I have beard some stories about a horse temperament being Indicated by its color mis true Also are mere some colors that are not accepted English classes Answer If a horse is a good horse color t enter into your choice unless you re interested In color breeding However there are authorities who maintain certain temper amenta do go with certain colors such as a grey horse is quiet and docile a chestnut is very lively and sensitive while a bay is Just right This is supposed to be related to skin thickness and mentation but whether it has actually been proved I dont know There always someone to tell you about the exception including me As for soma colors not being allowed in English classes Im afraid there is some prejudice in large Hunter shows even though no color Lt actually barred No matter how well a horse performs a Judge will often dis criminate against pinto appaloosa palomino or buckskin This is gradually changing but there are still older Judges who will mark down a loudcolored horse who in supposed to be hunter There seem to be this prejudice In performing classes such as open Jumping
