OK horse A carries 55Kg horse B 53Kg. Quite a bit of an advantage wouldn't you say?
Horse A has a dump and a peee in the mounting yard, saw it happen hundreds of times.
Which horse has a weight advantage now?
Weight is highly overrated by itself, better to study which horses can or cannot carry weight over distance.
Good luck |
