On Saturday April 19th, 2015 at the 70th Annual Del Mar National Horse Show in Del Mar, California we were entertained by Tommie Turvey and his team from Equine Extremist.
A life-long horseman and acclaimed stuntman, Tommie trains horses for his own live shows, movies, and clients. He performs his signature acts to sold-out crowds in North America and has dedicated his life to brining the power and beauty of the horse to the forefront with stunning entertainment and inspiring demonstrations. Tommie also conducts clinics teaching his no-nonsense ideals.
One hugely popular act stars Pokerjoe, beloved for his endearing comedy antics, which earned him the coveted distinction as a Breyer horse model.

Tommie trained eight Budweiser Clydesdales for their starring role in the 2013 Super Bowl commercial, which lit up social media.

I really do love how the whole time the horse doesn’t look distressed. He mostly looked like he was having a good time. Plus the amount of trust this horse has in his rider is amazing. You can’t tell that the horse was enjoying it and just genuinely loves his rider.
Everyone talks how much the horse trusts its rider, and while that's true, I am also amazed by the trust the riders has in his horse. You could not pay me enough to fool around with a horse like that.
I can't prove it, but I get the impression that the horse understood this was comedy and was having fun too.
U know you are stressed when you're jealous of how calm that horse was
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more comfortable horse. SO CALM.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a calm horse that actually puts up with this and is trained so well to do the right thing at the right time. Like that was amazing bravo. The horse didn’t even looked stressed or anything it looked so happy and like it was having fun. Wow just wow. That is the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in my entire live. The horse literally acted like a dog. That’s just so crazy. Best video on YT and best performance I’ve ever seen with horses. Bravo to the person who trained this horse and must have spent all day every day getting ready for this. Such a great actor. This was a great thing to film!
For all those who think his tail is dyed or bleached, it is
that is the calmest and most well trained horse ive ever seen!
Brings tears to my eyes. Just knowing horses and the dedication and trust that horse has in him is truly remarkable. Especially in a cheering auditorium. It's not evey day you see mastery.
Beautiful horse! Healthy, muscular, and just plain happy. He looks so relaxed. It warms my heart to see the love between them.
You can tell how good he treats his horse, and how much that horse trusts his rider. Their relationship is strong and not built from fear. I enjoyed this with a good mind.
Amazing. Those of us who know horses realize the exceptional training and trust that's exhibited.
This is such a beautiful horse. With its 4 white boot like hoofs and the gorgeous white tail.. and the mane in black.
This horse is beautiful!! Love the relationship between the two. As calm as this horse is he looks to be enjoying the attention and interaction. Plus the tricks of the horse himself shows how smart horses are. I mean look at that baby bow at the end of the performances. Love it 💜
Wow! The relationship between Tommy and Pokerjoe is amazing, you can tell it was built on trust, respect and love. No horse will do the stuff this one does unless they trust their rider/trainer. Pokerjoe is in fantastic condition, what a magnificent animal that is smart and very well trained.
i'm almost 60 years old, i remember a time when funny things like this would be on tv all the time.
They eyes of the horse while on its back was so calm. There was no sign of stress...almost relaxation. His ears were constantly on his act partner listening for cues and watching him.
Beautiful horse. And so smart. His calm demeanor and spot on acting was fantastic.
I need this horse for my grandkids! I actually saw him do his act and it’s amazing. The hours he spends with the horses must be in the millions! Great trainer and an exceptional horse.
Been around horses all my life. Never have i seen anyone do all the things this man has taught this extremely beautiful intelligent horse. Both of you are truely amazing. Love that white tail!!
