39 out of 43.&nbsp; In my experience, a horse with a temp of 101 is sick!&nbsp; We wouldn't race them.&nbsp; And in the answer it said between ? and 100.5 is normal - isn't 101 about 100.5?&nbsp; Nitpicking, I know. <IMG src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0">

39/43 as well, and I agree with tbbrat about the temperature thing! I didn't get the pony size question wrong because I knew they were looking for 14.2, but the height limit for FEI ponies is actually 14.3.

Hey, if your horse is on a narrow mountain side trail and you can only get on from the right . . .&nbsp; you <EM>should</EM> be able to mount from both sides, but I'd have to really think about where to put my arms and legs <IMG src="smileys/smiley24.gif" border="0">.&nbsp; Don't forget, that whole mounting from the left thing started when "gentlemen" wore their swords on the right - when's the last time <EM>you</EM> wore one on horseback? <IMG src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0">

39/43 - I know you CAN mount from the right, but we always mount from the left, no idea how many horses in the US, a normal resting HR is between 26-40, so I said 30, and I said 12 hours to digest food instead of 48.......
*as far as I know, normal temp is between 99.5 and 101.5 degrees F<edited><editID>Bluebird</editID><editDate>38398.7730902778</editDate></edited>

I got 40/43 right
I got the mounting on the lef &amp; right wrong... You CAN mount on the right but you are supposed to mount on the left... I even know the story of why haha... but whatever.
And the one about electrolytes.... I ride at an eventing barn, we use electrolytes all the time after competitions and stuff.
and the one about food digesting.

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#As if it matters what side you CAN mount from, you normally mount from the left, no? Technically, you can mount from the head (done it...my horse lifted me onto his back...lol) but the accepted way if left...sorry ranting...that's a good quiz, but needs some help w the questions...#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
