Ride a horse that wants to 𝐰𝐢𝐧 just as much as you do.
I think a common denominator between the horses that win, is their presence, their confidence, and their love of the game.
When I think of the horses I have won on over the years, almost every single one of them has a BIG personality. They make sure their presence is known, and they’re not always “law abiding citizens” if you know what I mean… they’re not always perfectly behaved outside of the arena but when they enter the arena they’re ALL BUSINESS.
Those are the horses I love.
I love the horses who keep me on my toes. Who are a little bossy. And most importantly have an opinion — because that shows tenacity & passion. When you’re passionate about something, you generally have an opinion, and that’s what I want in my horses. I want them to care. I want them to know when they’ve accomplished something amazing. I want them to FEEL the excitement & roar of a crowd and LOVE that. I want them to believe everyone bought a ticket to watch JUST THEM!
I know others favor a “law abiding citizen” more than maybe I do, but the one thing I can say about myself and what I have accomplished so far with my horses is my ability to bring out the best in them, by letting them be THEM. I’m thankful to follow behind amazing trainers who laid down the law early, so that I can be the one to let loose just a little, I think that’s my purpose in life truthfully ✨
So I hope if you’re on a journey with horses like me, that you can swing a leg over a horse that wants to win just as much as you.
𝙋𝙤𝙥𝙥𝙮 𝙇𝙚𝙬, is exactly this.
