I don't think any of them said they would enter a horse and then scratch it. Declan's Harbor's post I agree with, it IS like entering a rabbit, which obviously excludes others even if it's not the stated purpose. I personally don't like the use of rabbits anywhere, it's unfair to the rabbit, if nothing else.
