    sunlight reflecting off the polished metal spooked his horse causing the mare to jump off the trail, stumble, and spill him into the bushes. Stunned by a blow to his head and weakened from his previous injuries, he lay there a moment to catch his breath and clear his head. Stirred by icy water seeping through his clothes, he crawled toward the trail, ready if the woman came at him with a weapon. Although remorse clung to him as he crawled past dead horse, he felt relief that the mare hadn't…

    Horse racing has been in the eyes of the public for many years. How could it not be, with how much publicity surrounding it, much like football or baseball in the United States. Some of this publicity is good, with impressive feats such as the first Triple Crown winner in 37 years garnering an international audience.

    Horses have influenced my life in ways that are immeasurable. Little things in everyday life have changed; I count strides between cracks on the sidewalk, feel the constant urge to sit up straight, and I’ve learned to be okay with spending $300 on two pairs of shoes every 6 weeks. Just not for me. Horses continue to influence my life in a more profound way, teaching me patience, humility, and that perfection is impossible so I should just enjoy the ride. Patience is crucial in the barn,…

She looked sort of like vanilla ice cream with Oreo cookies, thats what her color reminded me of the first time I placed my eyes on her. I had no choice in choosing her name, as my father had already chosen for me, her name was Canela. I would have remembered this as the happiest day in my life; six years old and getting my new horse, well happiest day for now. My ranch was located in a…

    would often nap on the back of my horse while he ate hay, my face buried in his mane. I learned to ride before I could crawl. I sat in the saddle in front of my mom, until eventually, I learned to sit up for myself. It was not too long after my sixth birthday that I boldly announced that I was going to ride on my own. Of course, my overconfidence led to the inevitable event of falling off for the first time. I quickly learned that the phrase “get back up on the horse” holds much meaning. The…
