I am confused.  By ponies and galloping 10-20 miles a day do you mean that you have pony horses at the track?  I am asking because I am unaware of any track trainer putting that many miles a day on racing stock.
And no, I am not nit picking just asking for clarity.

*For the record, I don't deal with hock sores here in MN.  But hell everyone knows I avoid white/chrome of any kind because I am lazy and probably only brush their legs maybe once or twice every year. *  
I *think* she's referring to pony horses at the track.

Also, hock sores don't care what color the horse is. You can just see them better on the white ones. I've seen hock sores on world level halter horses, at the shows, in full page ads in the journal, and I know they are kept inside in deep bedding most of the time. I guess one could remove them with PhotoShop in the pictures, and I'm sure that's done for many ads in the magazines.
