Sorry MSSCAMP, running a horse at a fence isn't a choice I would make simply because their either gonna go over it, stop at it and unload me into the fence, make a sharp turn either right or left (direction unknown until you're up on the fence) and unload me into it, or hit it. Seen too many hit the fence and either flip over it or die. Yup, die. Had a friend who was working a cutting horse colt in an arena (of all places) and the dern thing bolted and ran right into the gate and dropped over dead on top of her. Of course the flipping over the fence ones looked pretty scary too.
