| I won't pretend to know much more about most of these horses than the latest issue of BH News taught me, but that horse definately stood out! What a cool horse! Love watching these gals run, I just wish it wasn't over in the blink of an eye. How are you supposed to analyze their runs, see what they are wearing, what their gear looks like, etc in 13 seconds! 
I will say I need to watch runs like this all winter so I can try to learn to hustle a horse! |

Location: NE Texas | Not me! That's dangerous not only to Sydni but to the other ladies, horses, and people down there in the alley. She definitely can do it, but absolutely would not be worth it to me to deal with that crap in the alley. Too many out there that you DON'T have to deal with that. I can handle on the muscle, but that crap is outright dangerous. JMO |

I have to agree! I can't forsee it getting any better. I think it will just go down hill! she is wicked awesome but I would hate to take that chance not only with my legs and knee caps but with everyone else and their horses!!! That is completely dangerous. Tough call for Syndi but I am sure we all know what she will do considering the run she had last night and it sure wasn't pretty. |

Location: Blissfully happy Giants fan!!! | Talking abou tcrazy, or rather uncrazy. Man do I have a whole new respect for Slick. Michele popped him out of the gate entrance and he listened to her and just stopped. It was only a moment but you could tell he had complete control over his brain and was listening to her. For a stud, I was utterly impressed. And if I was into breeding, I would now seriously consider him. |

Location: MD | Pure Victory Dash AKA Twisted Sister won the Juvenille at the BFA With Angie Grandpre, was trained by Bunt and has been owned by the Blanchards for some time. On the issue of her being bad in the alley, I actually thought they handled it quite well. Sydni stayed off of her until it was time for her to go and it seemed to me as though the mare was rather well behaved until that point. I certainly seen several other horses that girls have run repeatedly through the years come into the alley in much the same fashion. |

I agree. It's one thing to refuse but another to just be ready to go! That alley is a nightmare in it's self. |

Location: Riding Crackhead. | As the horse was running home my daughter and I thought we saw something , like a rope, come across the horses face right under her eyes. We didn't know if the rope was supposed to have come off and the horse took off before the guy had a chance to get the job done? Maybe I was seeing things too. It was wayyyyy past my bedtime. |

When the camera switched to her as the girl before ran out, I thought the horse looked really really calm. The craziness didn't start until she moved up those last few feet and made the move into the other alley. I guarantee any of my horses would be a handful in that alley! |

Whatever contraption that they had on her head was also up around her eyes by the time she got to third...and yes that piece of rope was swinging in the air. I would think that would be a distraction....but she was certainly "wickedly" FAST ! ! ! |

Location: Midwest Farmer's Daughter: Central Illinois | As many past threads have shown, everyone has their own idea of what an 'alley issue' is, what they will or will not tolerate & what line crosses from amped to dangerous.
I was impressed with the horse, she worked hard & was obviously ready for her job. She didn't fight the gate, which is the most important thing to me. |
