Sun. Misc.

Warning, titled vid of questionable interest that am posting for myself mainly to look back if, should we make it to the race tracks, brought into Q again this week by 5 straight days of mud. Vid is tilted and half way through sun disappears.
Where is it written that animals will cooperate? We get finally a sunny day for a video with intent to show our horse's new found enthusiasm for heading his running mate. These horses are pretty smart. Vid begins waiting for Rod to dump. He takes his time. Next they head straight into the barn, lol. Nor do we get any of the planned vid of Rod running all out, catching the older one and putting on a display. Instead we get a minor breakthrough as Rod actually takes the lead and keeps running, instead of his usual stop the minute he gets in front. All the yelling involves the older horse peeling out of the exercise the minute he's headed and getting that one back into the right direction. Very little necessary today to keep 'em going where in former days we'd have to sprint all out to keep Rodney going. The vid starts after the fastest heat of the day had been run of about 3.5f that was all out. Fastest shown is in :14s. Riderless then followed by also a break through in tack work were we got our first fairly fast heat of the year.
