    Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | If you could threw your leg over ANY horse in history, during a special moment in time, who would it be? What would be your dream?
I have often wondered what it would be like to be aboard Secretariat coming down a back stretch
or
Get to run Scamper around a set of barrels at the NFR finals |

The Black Stallion (In know, fictional.)
Just can't remember the name of one black horse that went to the NFR for a few years around 06? Love, love that horse. Funny? I am having a total mental blank about the riders name too. Her kids used to put stickers on her hands before the rounds. |

| There are probably a bunch that would be amazing to get on Scamper, Stingray and a long list of others I am sure. I did get to ride a mare who unofficially broke a world record at 220 yards, she was a blast to ride . |

   Location: MI | Are we also dreaming that we are world-class, in-shape riders? Cause I'd certainly fall off most of these horses...I would love to be in their presence though, inhale their aura...
ETA - Rugged Lark. Would love to try to ride that horse. I don't know why, just always have had a love affair with him.

| My old rodeo mare, in her prime, rolling down the alleyway, in to the Thomas and Mack complete with it's normal trashy, hard ground.
And since I am dreaming, I am 15 to 20 lbs lighter!
She would have been awesome in that pen. And she was/is so honest and gritty that I would take her over any of those NFR greats. She ran her heart out....for me. |

    Location: Deep South | Lisa Lockhart's "Louie" I love the way that horse runs such a picture perfect pattern every single time. And he is much more my style than a lot of the other amazingly great NFR horses.
Also would LOVE to cut a cow on Highbrow Cat back in his prime. (Complete with velcro seat/pants)

This would be my top pick. I'm no jockey, but since we are dreaming... I think that would be awesome. |

       Location: Texas | Do I gotta pick just one?
Hawk, Stingray, Slider, Louie, Scott, Fiesta, Dolly, there is another horse that ran one year and I cannot think of its name, but he looked fun to ride.. And my horse from long ago. :(
Love to take Gunner for a spin in the reining pen.
My main dream is me and my horse running down the alley in the T&M! Maybe one day. |

        Location: Southwest Minnesota | Fun post! I would like to know what Man 'O War was like...his 28 foot stride...kind of like strapping your a$$ to a rocket. I also would have, in my younger days, liked to have tried eventing. Also, as long as we are dreaming, I also would like to drive a top fueler in drag racing...Me & Shirley Muldowney...   |

| Poco Lena and Seattle Slew. Poco Lena was a champion cutting mare as well as the dam of Doc O Lena and Dry Doc. Her last owner to compete on her, B.A. Skipper, had a seat belt on his saddle in order to stay on her. |
