The Big Test: They Passed

There's always a feeling of dread for that first gallop after auction.  Is your purchase able to breathe "or" is there any sort of breathing problem?  The Louisiana sale was 9/5.  Horses were in KC on 9/10.  Next day I took 'em in a large field and galloped them.  They ran fairly hard considering.  Both showed nice coordinated strides, a litttle speed, and--most happy to report--both horses are superior breathers and maybe among the best in that dept. that I've had.  "Phew".  Other than $4200 + costs = big stuff if u lost that amount due to a breathing problem.  Yet, big in this economy--trainable animals.  Training to date, next post.. Vids below taken before 9/12 when they were still colts and just after the big gallop. Also some from the La. sale.
