Good ones are hard to replace. Just got the call last night from a friend and he moving forward with his trial first weekend in April. Judges will ride a be a few scouts.

Back in the day we had a number of open shows where we had Saddlebreds and Walking horses and hunters at all of them.

Our mutual friend (Patton) had all Tennessee Walkers correct when he was in the horse buisness ?

I think I’d kinda like to go ride in the National one time before I meet my demise . Although I might be a little to stiff and or brittle anymore to ride every race .

If you are going to ride Ames DO NOT REPEAT DO NOT go on the weekends. Its a cluster with every cowboy and cow girl riding. It looks like a cluster and is no fun. Go during the week with much smaller crowd.

Danny and I both worked professionally with American Saddlebreds which are a completely different breed from Tennessee Walking Horses. The majority of horses you see at Field trials are walking horses and most closely resemble the plantation type. Wonderful to follow the big running dogs much the same as they have done for a couple hundred years.

I dunno. One of the best pieces of advice I got from my dad was "Son, never own anything that poops while you sleep"
