If you have or ride a cutting horse, or even if you have seen cutting horses in action, you can understand how these horses can get sore and painful. They are working hard and use a lot of strength getting low in the front end and rapidly moving side to side. For many cutting horses, nonworking hours are spent almost exclusively in the stall.
