Good afternoon. In my country we used to call Outriders "Policías de Pista" which literally means in english "Racetrack Police Officers" or "Racetrack Cops" Robert Love is an unsung heroe of horse racing. What an important job he does. Mister Love deserves a public respect and recognition. Greetings from a venezuelan citizen who emigrated to Chile searching a better way of life.

love the chestnut that follows him like a little puppy

[@woolybullyshanti]

Looks like he's got some kick ass ponies as well.

[@meggillis8958]

Scooter (the dark one) is very kick ass. He has retired from being an outrider pony as of last October, and has lived a life of being spoiled ever since. He didn't like the race track, so Rob sent him off to a home where he would be happier.

[@deniseshephard6947]

Meg Gillis do you mean sent to slaughter because that's where a lot of ponies go

[@CrystalSanchez094]

Robert love's pony was also has a Part in the legendary catch he made what a great team they made

[@meggillis8958]

The dark horse Rob is seen riding in this video has retired from the racetrack to live with me. He didn't like the racetrack so Rob sent him to me where he now lives a happy life being lazy and spoiled.

Good Job Robert!! You ride some beautiful horses yourself

[@elizabethferguson7002]

What an awesome pony. I love a horse in a plain red wrapper.

Awesome job , nice outriding horses

[@angelaklinger2951]

Outriders ride ex-racehorses such as Rob’s big chestnut. Most people who are not in the racing game don’t realize that racing quarter horses have a tremendous amount of thoroughbred blood in them and as much as 7/8ths. Rarely do Thoroughbreds run quarter mile races. But they actually hold the quarter mile record. Winning Brew recently broke the record a few years ago that had been held by a thoroughbred for many years. Outriders use thoroughbreds because of their stamina and speed. I have owned both these breeds for 40 plus years.

Top man! His hrse looks so happy

[@Alessandra7967]

This guy is amazing

[@ronnewbee8071]

looks like robert was going a lot faster than the race-horses

[@nala3055]

The racehorses have to maintain over a much longer distance than a quick 20m sprint to catch a loose horse

[@1houndgal]

Maybe his horse is a quarter horse. Known for the fastest short sprints (quarter mile). Throughbreds on the other hand are bred for longer distances. He has an awsome horse, perfect for the job..

[@blainestockwell6957]

On some pretty nice looking horses there Robby

[@kirstinetermansen7234]

Empresive he is.....

[@KarenRodriguez-hj8yw]

Would be a great job. Commited to responsible safe race days.

[@kirstinetermansen7234]

That funny get this posted,..... Might be cool enough

[@Caroni100]

Oops! In my comment I should write "hero" (english word in singular time) instead of "heroe" (spanish meaning of "hero"

[@marychristmas4911]

In the UK riders have to be skilled enough to stay on their horses and be able to control them at all times, there are no outriders in British racing, you're on your own!

[@kennaweeks1480]

Lol that’s my cousin

[@mariaweston5477]

Not a good idea for camera on rider. Nice idea but unwatchable.
