Let's think about this a bit.
Does your horse shoe easily? Does your horse load in the trailer? Can you catch him
to go riding? Can you bathe your horse?
If you can't catch your horse then you are pretty much out of luck on riding or doing
anything else. If you can't get your horse to stand for the shoer then you are limited
to where or how you can ride him. The same goes with if he won't load into the
trailer. Then you are stuck with riding in the pasture or arena that is close by.
One thing that we have found with the ex-race horses is that they will do all these
with ease. They are used to doing all of these at the track.
Something to try with the horse you are test riding is to try to stop him from a run in
the middle of the pasture. If you can't do this then you might look for another horse.
After the exciting ride anyway. :)
We hope you enjoy our philosophy and will come visit Sierra Ranch.
