I'm planning on taking my young horse Via on his first 50 mile ride at Ft. Meade in South Dakota July 25th. I would like someone to ride my seasoned horse Sanshra along with me. Via and I completed a 30-mile LD ride at Shamrock this weekend, and he did very well. Sanshra and I finished one of the 55's at Shamrock in 7th place.
Sanshra is a small horse, 14.1 hands and about 800 pounds, with over 900 miles completed including the Big Horn 100. He will need a rider with some distance riding experience.
Terms: the rider must ride with me throughout the ride. I will pay half the entry fee and the rider will pay the other half. The rider can keep any awards won at the ride.
I prefer a Junior rider who I will sponsor. For a Junior rider I will pay the full entry fee, and the Junior can keep any awards won at the ride. The Junior will
need to have completed either one 50-mile or longer ride, or a couple of LD rides.
If I should get pulled from the ride, Sanshra's rider can continue on to finish.
My wife Kat will be crewing for us, although any additional crew people would be welcome.
