I think because he tried to stop so hard. He is the man. His horses run hard, fast but collected. Good job Andrea.

You can´t say that, they are both at the same level....it all depends on how good of a horse you get.

3 because it is in the Futurity

Pegasus - some horses just do that. I ride lots of them and some just 'snake' along while others are more heads up. Most reining trainers dont force headsets. The nice thing about reining is that we judge maneuvers - not style. Must admit I like the snakey looking ones though!

No - we were nowhere near his alley. He came through and under our young horse who was crosstied our area several aisles away. It was startling - especially since he was so adamant about his area. We dont ever mind someone walking through - it was the riding of the bikes up behind our horse and under his neck without giving us time to make all safe that was disconcerting. It would have been unsettling no matter who it was but it just happened to be him.

@NUPPYNOONOO you were crosstied in his alley?

[curryqueen]

How old is this horse?

[NUPPYNOONOO]

I stabled beside Andrea in OKC. He was arrogant. He scolded me for walking through 'his' area (no horses or activity in there at the time I went through else I would have taken the very long route around as a courtesy) but then he, his wife, and his little children - all on bikes - rode under my crosstied horses with no pause to let us make our young horses - or his children - safe. He was rude. Fortunately our horses were well behaved. Andrea F - not so much.

Are you people kidding me!!!!They are both good...Fappani`s horse I bet grabbed a shoe on that first stop!!That can happen to anybody!!!

Fappani rocks!!!

Shawn also gets better horses to train because hes made a name for himself, he only rides the best of the best.

I like shawn flarida's training methods better. This horse is uncollected and goes into a four-beat a few times, looks good to the blind eye, but his head carriage is very poor, and thats why he bumped himself when he slid.
