Meanest Trainer Ever?

[Linny]

Thoroughbreds are sensistive and often thin skinned. (Anyone one needing proof can come to my barn and bathe/groom the horse in my avatar.) I'm sure the horse felt this and felt it good. However, anyone who has been on a horse that is out of control or close to it, no matter what the breed will do anything to get it's mind back on working. This horse was very rank and while DC's actions were harsh it is unfair for people who don't ride and/or deal with horses to get it, sometimes you just have to show some force.
I'm the first one to spoil a horse with treats, ear scratches and neck rubs but when a 1200+ lb. creature decides that he's in charge, there are not that many ways to set him straight.
