Round Pen, that was a really interesting post. I had no idea many young racehorses-to-be didn't get any sort of real turn-out after being weaned. And makes perfect sense as to why they'd be so fragile later.

Makes me think of the parallels with human kids and the things that some studies can develop with them if they don't get time to just play outside and be kids (obesity, allergies, etc). Playing is good for lots of young "critters," I guess!

Thanks for the post!
