Maybe I am looking at it wrong... But I see the riders head bouncing up and down violently... to me this means the rider is Not one with the horse.... Makes it harder on the horse...
Thanks for the insight into life at the track. What a wonderful teaching tool these videos are! I'm liking how you're showing us horses OTHER than Zenyatta. Would love to see more of that other sweet mare you have in your barn (Zardana).
John~you give me a chance to see what it's like to be on the back of a race horse! Thank you so much! Chills! Thrills! Your videos give us all the more reason to LOVE, RESPECT & ADMIRE race horses!!!!! :-)
Thank you John...and I have a question: The other day, when we saw the video of Z working (and passing) 2 other horses...does it hurt these other horses mentally, to get passed on their works? I'm thinking they are race horses (enter races) so does this kind of frustrate them? Just wondering. Tks.
WHOA! I was pulling on the arms of my computer chair for all I was worth! I don't know know what made it so gripping---the sight of the other horses being passed at such a dizzying speed, the almost hypnotic drumming of Nereid's hooves, or the whooshing sound of the air as he punched a hole in the wind. Thank you, Mr. Sherriffs, for taking us to places where most of us will never be.
Great video...letting us go along as you teach Nereid to 'rate'. It is these kinds of videos that let your fans see (and appreciate) all of the hard work that goes into teaching a horse to race. Speaking for all of your fans, thanks for sharing your horses with us...we look forward to seeing your new crop of youngsters!
We all are praying Makoma is okay. Sending positive thoughts & prayers to you tonight and hope to get good news soon.
Congratulations Nereid!

Thanks to Nereid and her rider for the thrills. Great fun!
How much does the helmet-cam weigh? Any chance you could put it on somebody during an actual race?
