Picnic In The Park 21 Consecutive Wins - after his breakdown. [05:17]
Sorry about the video quality, just wanted to show the affection my dad had for our champ Picnic In The Park. Many horses, who won considerably more money were not saved when they broke down. Dad loved him.

[READ DESCRIPTION] Can't sleep, started this at 11:00pm and finished around 3:30am. Now I'm probably going to spend a good 30 minutes writing a somewhat meaningful description. Well... Where to start... I had a pretty good breakdown before I started making this video. I thought about... how I'm poor... we can't afford much... one lesson a week isn't helping me enough... so many people think I'm a horrible rider... so many people put me down... I have ten times more bad days than good... I fear I'll never be a good rider... I'll never amount to anything... ect. Constantly people are putting my down. They say I can't ride. I'll never be good no matter what. Because I'm poor I'm nothing. I'm really starting to believe them. More than anything in life I just want to ride. I wish I could ride everyday, every second of my life. Or at least just be with horses... and learning... Even though this video is only a minute and a half long. I could spend an endless amount of time expressing how I feel. But, I'll never give up on what's important to me. Never. I'll just have to work ten times harder than everyone else around me. I'll work for it. No matter how long it takes. I know I'll get there... someday. Well I think I'm done with this stupid description. I hate writing descriptions... Thanks for reading, ~Ashley

Devon Loch's 1956 National Fall - Nara [00:33]
The unexpected popularity of this video has made me decide to add a description to this video. This was in England in 1956. The horse was uninjured and those who keep insisting he was need to learn how to use a search engine and stop swearing at me and telling me that I do not know anything about horses. I am very sorry that you have not reached a point in your life where you can just look it up. The horse and jockey where unharmed; the horse had a slightly sore back from this unique accident. It could have been much worse, but Devon Loch lived for years after the incident and even raced again.
