Zebra, Horse or Neither? [01:05]
It's a zebra. It's a horse... no, it's an okapi. Not discovered until the 20th century, the okapi's closet relative is actually the giraffe.
Horse bolts during gymkhana game [01:24]
When I'm going to get the flag during a gymkhana race, Jake gets spooked and gallops off. It looks intentional but he was actually spooked and only calmed down once I dropped the flag. PLEASE NO CRITICISM. I was holding the reins in one hand so it was a little difficult to control him in a gallop and I had to keep turning him into circles to calm him down. No worries...
Fan Runs Onto Racetrack [00:50]
A man ran across the track during the stretch run of the feature race at Del Mar on Thursday, barely escaping contact with several horses that were driving for the finish line. The man, carrying a duffel bag filled with personal belongings, jumped the outer rail as the horses reached the top of the stretch. As the field got closer, he began running in the same direction as the horses and, about 30 yards before the wire, with Chris McCarron trying to avoid him aboard the race winner, Sea Of Serenity, the man flung the bag behind him, into the path of another horse. The second-place finisher, Factual Attraction, missed the man by inches, and he was then missed by two other trailing horses--Toga Toga Toga and Regal Gentry--who simultaneously passed on either side of him. The man, later identified as Russell Howard Caputo, 38, a onetime resident of Beverly Hills, then jumped the inner rail, ran across the turf course and was apprehended near the tote board by a member of the starting-gate crew and taken into custody. The name of the race was the Royal Order of Jesters Purse. William Knowles, director of security for the track, said Caputo was turned over to the San Diego County sheriff's office. "There are indications," Knowles said, "that he's suffering emotional problems. When he was taken into custody, he made vague references to self-destruction. He said something about doing it on the train, then said that he wanted to do it on the track." A sheriff's spokeswoman ...
'i'm a Tornado [01:14]
Finally the jackpots are up and running after Christmas break! I broke 18secs. today with Huddi and got 3rd place, and got in the 21's with Harley! I actually did a bit of a rodeo run with Harley, and he took it really well
Inherently's maiden win at Turfway Park 1-18-13 [01:34]
Inherently, a 4yr old gelding by Dehere, made his debut Friday, Jan 18th and won! He beat some nice horses-the favorite, #5 Steel Guitar, is a half brother to Breeder's Cup winner, Midnight Lute, and another runner, #10 Strong Government, actually was already a winner in his last start but got disqualified for rider interference. Jockey Amanda Tamberullo did an excellent job preparing this horse in his morning workouts as well as rating him perfectly in the race. I sure would like to post more winning videos of this guy in the future!
