Broken bridle during performance

Post by Stormy Peak »

Again, not a racing story...but still awesome.

This was a last performance for this rider/horse and he kind of explains that that is why he continued with the routine even though he was disqualified for touching the reins with both hands.

The horse is amazing to watch...easy to see there's a lot of training involved, even with the loss of the bridle the horse knows the signals and didn't forget her training and didn't panic and the rider was confident in his skills and his horse too.

Start at about 1:15 to see where the bridle broke
