Night of the Horse 2008 - Rainbow Riders

On Saturday April 19th at the 63rd Annual Del Mar National Horse Show in Del Mar, California we were entertained by the award-winning Rainbow Riders. Captain Dottie Pierce and the Rainbow Riders have been performing their fast-paced, percision maneuvers at many California rodeos, equestrian events, and fundraisers since 1986.
From Romona, California, the Rainbow Riders are made up of women of all ages who come from all walks of life. The team performs a high-speed precision drill with intricate, and at times, gripping maneuvers, filling the arena with fast horses and a swirl of rainbow colors.
Often referred to as the "Blue Angels on horseback," thand camaraderic help make Rainbow Riders an exciting drill team that will have you on the edge of your seat.
They were proud to be part of the Del Mar Night of the Horse again this year!

yes it is but it is still lots of fun!

[EquineJazz]

I agree, I am coaching a team, I have drilled since I was 8, and while it gets smoother, none of it is easy, the rider has to concentrate the whole time with no break and the horse has to be athletic and responsive. Its harder than those who have never ridden think

[polechamp2008]

those of you who are not in a drill team you have no idea how hard it is to organise these things, my drill team is doing the every other, criss crossing thing and its way harder than it looks
