new puzzle! horsing around

There's a new crossword up at World of Crosswords. The theme is horsing around.

This latest puzzle was created early in the history of our site. At the time, I wasn't aware of certain rules governing standard crosswords. In particular, I'm talking about rule six, "Long theme entries must be symmetrically placed." There's a theme entry in today's crossword that has no matching symmetrically placed entry. The puzzle actually has five theme entries; I suppose you could consider the fifth asymmetrical entry a bonus theme entry! Personally, I don't feel strongly about this rule, so it doesn't bother me. I hope you'll enjoy the crossword, even in cases like this where we break these rules!
