tomahawk [03:31]
This is Red River Rocket aka: "Tomahawk". I ride him in hackamore. He is a really easy going horse and pleasure to be around. He seems to be getting faster the more I ride him. I haven't had him long...took him in on trade towards another younger horse I trained. He has had his feet done correctly now and been power packed. I had his teeth floated and all shots are up to date. He is completely sound and needs nothing. No worries with this one!! Haul and have fun and consistently go to the pay window! What more could you ask for? $2500 firm. Call: 803 266 2326
Near tragic accident in morning workout at racetrack [01:23]
Exercising racehorses is one of the most exciting things I have ever done but it is also one of the most dangerous. I was filming one of our horses, Santa Strega (yellow blinkers with jockey Amanda Tamburello up), working out of the gates a half mile with another horse. Everything was going fine until the rider lost a stirrup coming through the turn. I would not have posted this if the rider did not agree to it, I'm so glad I wasn't filming something that could have ended really horrific...
The Key to Training Success - Patience, Consistency, Kindness [01:41]
Spring 2012 (First year off the track) 5yo off the track Quarter Horse to be used for barrel racing and dressage. Had an issue of head tossing at the start of his training. This issue was fixed with NO equipment changes, NO rough training methods or harsh bits/equipment (was being ridden in a Myler snaffle), NO trank or other types of supplements used to "calm" a horse (ie - equine chill) and NO professional riding/training (only riding done by myself without professional instruction). FYI - this issue was fixed within about a month, maybe less. The tools used to fix this issue were: PATIENCE - getting frustrated causes tension in the rider which transfers to the horse making it impossible for him to relax into the contact and become supple and engaged. Also, losing patience and yanking the rein when soft, consistent contact doesn't seem to be creating results is counterproductive and could irritate the horse or (on a more sensitive horse) upset the horse to the point where they do not trust you enough to work for you. CONSISTENCY - In order for an issue like this to be resolved on a young horse, the rider must always be giving the same message as to not confuse the horse. Every time the head is tossed, contact is held and leg pressure is increased to push the horse into the contact. When he softens and brings his head down he is rewarded - a "good boy" and a pat on the neck with a slight decrease in rein contact tells him he did something right. If this is done the same ...
Needmore Cash Cruises To A Maiden Victory at Hoosier Downs [05:13]
NEEDMORE CASH stalked the pace early, angled into the three path in the turn then drove past the leaders in the stretch and cleared the field late. KEE KEE LEE tracked the pace early, angled off the rail into the turn then made a bid in the stretch but hung in the final stages. ERIN'S CHARGE steadied and checked hard early then chased the pace early and made a bid in the stretch but weakened late in the drive. BROTHER JIMMY RAY set the pace early, while on the inside into the turn and faltered late in the stretch drive. COUNTRY MINISTER was well placed early, angled into the three path in the turn and moved up in the stretch run. GETINONTHEACTION swung into the six path in the turn and improved position. HAPPY MORO was never a factor. WALLSTREET FLASH showed little. STORMANMINSTER was done early. DUST STORM veered in early and soon stopped.
