Over the week-end I had the pleasure of attending the Road to the Horse event. It was fascinating to watch four expert trainers start with 3 year old colts who had very little handling (I guess you could call them wild) and within two days compete in riding, freestyle and an obstacle course competition. It made me believe that I could train a colt too (a childhood dream of mine). Not in two days of course but it would be fun to try!
I found some great photos of the day online!! (Mine were fuzzy since it was indoors.) Here's the winner, Chris Cox, standing on his horse. Amazing, yes? Remember, this was an untrained and unworked horse the day before.
Here are the other contestants - all pros.
