What thought has been given to this, or is it entirely up to the trainer?

Thanks,

Suzanne..

Good question.. I'd be more inclined to let Chuck answer that. As I explain in the prospectus, there will be a reserve of about 15% for emergency purposes, so I suppose we would do what we could in the short term to get our runner a post-career home and deal with it from there.. We do have a few show/hunter/jumper riders around DT.. Could be an option..

Bottom line is that we'd 'make it work'...
