asking beat eighth horses mile period picture short time
To picture him doing what he just accomplished? No. From 5½ to a mile and an eighth in a short period of time and beat the kind of horses he did, that's asking a lot.
alex asking bit horse quarter quite
My horse was getting a little bit tired. I was really asking him going to the quarter pole, but Alex was just cruising and we just couldn't quite make up that much ground.
alex asking bit horse looked maybe pole quarter quite
My horse was getting a little bit tired. They quickened at the half-mile pole and it looked like maybe Alex got a little breather around the turn. My horse is so big, I was really asking him going to the quarter pole, but Alex was just cruising and we just couldn't quite make up that much ground.
backside field headed laying mouth notch stride tried
He was a little throttled up from laying over on the field and I had his mouth gagged over going into the first turn. Once I headed up the backside I just kind of let him out a notch and tried to just get him to find his stride and get comfortable.
