It's amazing what happens when a rider takes a speed horse to lead and rail and let's the horse do its thing, washy or not.

I sense a touch of bitterness here, did I hit a nerve?

You are the one who said horses are not machines and I agree. I would think that you would understand that when a rider tries to get a horse to do something it does't want to do, they often stop running altogether.

You need to tell Mike to not get in the way of good horses, its a really bad habit.

I didn't realize that criticism's of rides is banned here when people have money at stake on races and you are the Sheriff of it. Be sure to go after anyone who does so, Sheriff.

Huh?
