We had to make a bit of a detour, but Wink did a lovely circle for me and then straight back at the jump. He had excellent training.

I wish the racing industry would be more responsible for the over breeding and then the throw away mentality when it doesn't work out. <br /><br />I love thoroughbreds, I think they are one of the most beautiful breed in horses. We've had a few and they were all sensitive but well behaved. When retraining these former race horses you really must be calm and tuned in to their needs. I can only remember one horse (a friend's) who I could not stop, the more I tried to stop him the faster he ran. Luckily, no one was hurt but he needed more time on him with the right rider. <br /><br />It's very sad about the girl I feel sorry for everyone concerned. People really need to be very experienced to ride an ex-racehorse and be ready for anything.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542710981432903116.post-21579875376700985452011-03-16T03:59:06.773-07:002011-03-16T03:59:06.773-07:00thanks for your comments.

I have certainly had some lovely experiences riding thoroughbreds (combination of calm attitude and amazing acceleration) - and some nerve-wracking ones (with just the acceleration). I think it's good when these issues get discussed openly. No one likes to see young, healthy horses going to the slaughterhouse, or being placed with inexperienced or abusive riders. Inexperienced riders need experienced horses, abusive riders need no horses!Opheliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12633800279824957404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542710981432903116.post-80522299331454500222011-03-14T03:20:20.855-07:002011-03-14T03:20:20.855-07:00Yes, very relevant article, as thourghbreds are us...Yes, very relevant article, as thourghbreds are usually the cheapest option when buying into the horse riding market.<br />I have the most mild mannered ex racehorse, but in the wrong hands he would be a dangerous animal. Too often these beautiful animals are recycled and often abused, ive seen many starvation cases over the years. I listened to a jockey representative also whos concerns were that with large numbers of horses being bred the quality of some of the horses and training standards were putting their lives at risk more often.

Oh, and that works for boys/horses and girls/guitars too.<br /><br />I think the great thing about Sweetie is that hearing her story has probably encouraged other horse people to step up and take responsibility when they see a horse in need.Opheliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12633800279824957404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542710981432903116.post-52960645062370899302010-09-02T18:17:08.362-07:002010-09-02T18:17:08.362-07:00I wish I could draw and paint like you, you're...I wish I could draw and paint like you, you're very talented.
