No, not at all.  Eitill had an abscess open up last fall right before we were 
to leave for a trail riding weekend.  He was mostly better, but I didn't want 
to chance re-injuring it.  Eitill got the weekend off, and Trausti went 
instead.  


And an abscess is frequently something that blows over pretty quickly.  If it 
were vaguer, like something possibly in a joint, or a possible laminitis, I'd 
be even less inclined to ride the horse until he was better, and if possible, 
the reason was determined.
