The sound was very intense. I never really considered it, almost Harley like.

It's easy to forget how fast these horses move sometimes.

What's kind of neat too is that I think it's her trainer that posted that. Seems like it anyways.

John Shirreffs posts quite a few of his horse's workouts on youtube. He posted this one, as well. Very neat, I think.

I have shown this to the 'oh that midget can't ride, he's stiffing the horse' crowd and they're now yelling 'that horse can't switch leads' 10 secs after the switch. Wish I never showed it to them. lol
