Doesn't mean it was the smart or right thing to do, for him or a horse.

and ronnie made the decision himself...no one can ask the horse. they made the right call.
the spotlight only shines on this sport so many days a year. god, i can imagine the press had they run him and something went wrong. good lord, it would have been eight belles times a million.
