It's like she just flips a switch and he's on! Can't wait to watch the next rounds play out!! Keep it up Taylor! I've noticed that too.... He looks like some old dead-head farm plug until he gets his cue to turn it on... Did you see her interview where she said he is moody, sometimes wanting to be petted on and other times acts like a wild man. Taylor said before one of the rounds she won it took both her and her mom to get him saddled he was such a handful. She went on to say her it never ceases to amaze her how he can go from wild to all business as soon as he hits the alleyway, she can feel him starting to focus and get ready to run.

Don't Wanna Make This Awkward Posts: 3106 Location: Texas	TurnLane - 2013-12-12 11:03 AM CYA Ranch - 2013-12-12 10:33 AM boldbonanzarocks - 2013-12-12 10:13 AM I wonder why they switched him to the left ???? He was pretty awsome to the right I was wondering the same thing. How long has he been a lefty? I wondered the same thing:) Also, did King of Jackies always run left? For some reason I think he has been a right handed horse until recently? No, end of October or September I think is when she switched. Not sure what's going on but she's been having issues with him since around that time. I sure do hope she is ok and they get everything figured out, he is an awesome horse and Jackie is a hell of a jockey!
