Seeing It Coming.

There was something not right with this horse all the way through the round, and then he screwed up his distances and this happens. I have every sympathy for the rider, who is clearly injured. (The horse is like "Uh...sorry? I didn't mean to do it"). But something was definitely not right here. I'd almost say the horse is stiff through the neck and withers. Thoughts?

Good Job...

...all of these horses had brakes.

I've never seen or heard of this happening. (Ignore the video oddity in the middle...there are not two races going on at once here).

Dances, world's most dangerous stallion!

I admit it. I'm sharing it for the sarcasm, but what a nicely trained horse.

I Think...

...that cat weighs as much as that horse.

Big ol' ginger tom. Itty bitty baby horsey.

I'm Jealous...

Maybe once, a long time ago, I could do this.

Not any more. Heck, these days I use a mounting block all the time (albeit as much because it's better for the horse...)

How Old...

...do you think this horse is? You know, the one popping around that course with her ears forward and trying to go faster than would be ideal?

Hint. It IS in the video description.

NOT A Fail

Self taught rider. Cantering for the first time. She calls it a fail.

I think she's doing really, REALLY well myself.
