I've read about a Standardbred stallion--I think Nevele Pride--that had to be led by two grooms, one on each side, with the proverbial ten foot poles!
As for Hard Tack--the Fair Play line was notoriously difficult, although I never read of Man o' War being mean. |

I had one that bit me in the chest and when I went to grab it he bit the back of my neck. He had a hold of me and was basically winging me around his stall by my neck. He was also pawing my back with his front legs. Chuck saw him as he carried me out of the stall and lost his grip in the middle of the shedrow. Thank goodness I had my helmet and vest on. This horse did the same thing to a vets assistant and broke her ribs.

There are too many good, talented animals to waste time on the dangerous, talented animals.

Funny thing.....horse came from Monty Roberts Horse Whisperer.......I don't know where the horse is now. Last I heard some cowboys told the owners to pick him up before they took care of him for good.

From him or from one of his assistants, I wonder? (I've seen him work in person - it's kinda like Koehler Method, but for horses, the horse has to fit into the "program" ...)

Remember Sunday Silence also gave Charlie a good kick to the head days before the Belmont too. Also heard he was a handful in Japan. Funny he is out of Halo and someone else on the thread said he was a hot head too.

The one that bit into my shoulder in 1985. I don't remember his name.
I guess there may be meaner horses, but he taught me a lesson I've never forgotten. ![]() |
