This is a thing?

Trailer races?

No, not what you think. Quite.


Yup. You unload your horse from the trailer, tack it up, race around the arena (with some typically lousy contesting equitation...I can't talk, mine's no better) a few times, then you get off, untack and, yup, back on the trailer.

I'm trying to decide if this is a good test of horsemanship, a gimmick, or likely to result in long term loading problems from the stress.

I really can't decide. I had NO idea this was a thing.
