Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | Ridenrun4745 - 2013-12-05 8:09 PM 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.
OF COURSE, we are dreaming  We could ride these horses to their fullest abilities! |

I swear this horse was my first "Love" when I was a little girl. Could not get enough of Man 'O War. Use to draw pictures and read about him all the time. |

Scamper, Martha, Stingray, or Latte on barrels.
Big Ben over Fences.
Rugged Lark bridleless. My barrel horse is a grandson of Rugged Lark and he's the most senstitive horse I've ever thrown a leg over... That, and his hilarious personality make me so curious about what Rugged Lark was like in his day!

| rockinj - 2013-12-05 3:42 PM Phar Lap 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.
That was Denise Adams and Fun Jet. She was a brown mare by Jet Of Honor. Densie ran her in 04 & 05. She borrowed some of Jud Little's horses for 06. Gloria Freeman ran a black gelding in 00 and 01. |

When you have that much of a bond and trust with a horse I don't think it would phase you as much as you might think. Now if you just jumped on and that happened - different story! When I was much younger, I had a "Scamper" run where my bridle fell off, but my horse was an ol'faithful type and really proved how he didn't need a bridle. I was also more fearless in jr rodeos. When he felt me ease off finishing the run we coasted to a stop. Everyone around me was freaking out a bit, but I wasn't. |

I Really Love Jeans
Posts: 3173
Location: North Dakota | I would love to have the mare I rode when I was a kid. She ran for 12 years before I retired her. She was definately in her late 20's or more when she died of heart failure. She was an ugly GRADE mare but she NEVER took a lame step in her life. She was ridden 7 days a week 365 days a year and could go and make multiple runs and never slow down. The only time she needed a vet was for yearly shots! I don't think they even breed horses that stay sound anymore! She is my dream horse that I compare everything to and have yet to find another like her! |

Oh YES! Me too......I just love watching Stingray. However, it is hard to say exactly how a foal will match up to either it's sire or dam.
