Standardbred Retraining Vlog: Why we scratched from our first show

Most of the time, when you have to scratch at the last second, your horse pulls a shoe or comes up lame. But this week, I lost my childcare at the last second and opted to scratch rather than attempting to bring my daughter to the show.
There will always be another day to go to a show, and in the meantime we enjoyed a nice bareback hack around the farm.

I love Standardbreds! Sorry it didn't work out with the show. But you weren't just thinking about yourself, and that is such a more valuable thing. Bareback rides are fun too! I miss my horse and just hopping on him bareback for fun and seeing what would happen. He was always a good boy though. We had a quarab too. His back was much rounder for bareback riding. I hope you have a good week.🐴
