Re: [RC] Howard and "FOUR successful ride seasons with the SAME
horse"
I would like to ask everyone how many of you have won a
BC? It is not easy and I venture to speculate that very few people
have won or will ever win a BC. It is an accomplishment that many riders
strive for but never make it.
Winning a BC takes hard work, it
takes smart riding and it many times takes backing off - giving up going
for a win - in order to accomplish it. And folks I don't know of anyone
that has won a BC by accident.
Beat on Howard for the right
reasons - because he is a screwball, he is a pain in the butt, he thinks
at 30 mph but talks at 600 mph, but there is one thing you cannot take
away from him. He has won the highest prize in endurance riding - the BC;
something very few riders will ever be able to calim.

has his on a walking horse to boot in a very fast ride that would make
Howard look like he was goofing off on the trail :-)
