I have a nice 8yr old reining gelding for sale. You can do this everyday on him. Reining is great, but Working cow is where it is at. You get the reining pattern and then go run as hard as you can and turn a cow down the fence. Nothing better. Here is a friend of mine riding him brideless:

I started riding horses about 6 yrs ago because my wife had horses and got to ride a reiner. I now show reining and working cow horses and ride more than she does. It is an adrenaline rush, especially the cows.
