Partly Cloudy, Rain Possible| Gaelic Gladiacres |
| void - yes, obviously each horse is different and has to be taken in the totality of their circumstance. all I was saying is literally anything could be possible, no matter how small that is, because living creatures constantly upend common or long-held beliefs about what is possible. Teddy is a case in point |
| The Old Gods |
| e_e Rocky still has hoof issues/back problems from having too much weight riding him |
| E.T. Eventing |
| Void - Yes. I have seen far too many times where people claim that they are "putting the welfare of the horse first" and clearly that is not the case. They'd rather run them full with painkillers than retire them and see them as having value beyond simply existing |

| cuco awwww that's so sweet! brook - yeah sometimes they go totally different directions than you expect. it's kinda fun to find out where each horse's strengths are! |
| El Cuco |
| Lol, my supposed "eventing prospect" can have the wind blow on him too harsh and cause a health issue. He is definitely taking it easy now instead of doing what I'd hoped. But he was the first foal I ever raised and he'll always be my little baby, so even if I never get him rideable, he'll be staying with me. |

| No, she doesn't put her over super high jumps just not ground poles and she makes sure she gets anything she needs before and after she jumps her with her other horses. |
| The Old Gods |
| But I've also dealt with too many horses with health problems due to doing tasks they weren't designed for |

| I'd still be very wary of putting a small horse over large jumps. That's a lot of weight/force to be coming down on small bones/joints |

| My friend has a yearly that was supposed to be for hunter's but has turned out to be a very high jumper for her age lol |
| El Cuco |
| I have a soft spot for rescue horses. The absolute sweetest horse I ever met was a rescue. She fostered orphans for me before she passed and she adored it. |

| void my point isn't that literally any horse could be capable of it, but that any horse might have the drive and traits to be able to go up the levels. obviously you don't want to take a lazy thick WB beyond something like Novice because of how much conditioning and stuff it takes. but a small horse or a horse outside the "look" of what a "typical" UL eventer looks like can happen. just look at all the "$500 out of the slaughter house" horses have been incredible athletes |
