I don't get why everyone feels the need to scream and run. It scared more horses but that was well handled and I am glad to see someone trained him/her to trust and obey the command to "stand"
I'm so glad my horse doesn't do that anymore. The owners before me made my horse champ do that and now I'm teaching him barrel racing I think champ loves barrels now. He use to be terrified of everything birds, barrels, halters, gun shots, blankets, and alot of other stuff and now he's doing very well he spooks alittle in the barn but other then that he's perfect. I just have to say I have the best horse in the world!!
I’ll probably get roasted for this but horses are like people; they like to know where everybody else is and what they are doing. General rule of thumb is that they should stay on the rail (close to the side) and space themselves out comfortably. In this case, one person was running around the middle of the ring - so the other horses really didn’t know 1. What would happen next and 2. Where they should be. IMHO, the horse in the middle spooked the one who ran and crashed, even tho we didn’t get a good look at it.
Jean Rohde So right. There was plenty of room and no need for that woman to be anywhere other than on the rail. The judge will see your horse and no one gets spooked or run over.
Yeah, the idiot id the middle that had ZERO CONTROL of her horse was amping all the other horses up. Horses are herd animals, so when they see one running, they think that there is a reason to run. Idiot in white came out at almost a canter, almost got in a wreck, and never gained control of her horse; causing everyone else to have to work twice as hard to control their horses. I despise people like this. Check my channel for how I ride my horse.
@Lost Hero You are a fucking idiot. I drive a truck and ride a horse. I NEVER will go to one of these stupid ass shows because they serve absolutely no purpose. My "Fake Cowboy" friends and I actually use our horses for productive means like, herding, branding, and bringing cows to slaughter. We also participate in Search & Rescue for the Sheriff's Department as a part of the Mounted Posse. When somebody's horse or cow or donkey or camel or bison is running towards the freeway; it's not a lazy fuck in a cart chasing them down, it's us "Fake Cowboys" that rope that animal and get it home safely while preventing some poor 16 year old girl from dying because she crashed into a loose animal.
Jean Rohde no, NONE of these horses can see anything than what we would see through binoculars. They have blinkers or blocks on that block more than half their sight, they can’t see a single thing on the sides of them, they were either going off how they were steered and their hearing from what is next to and behind them. It’s so god damn stupid. I have horses and experience in carriage and harness so I know the gear. It’s all dumb crap.
All these people talking about how they seem to always be spooked. Something happened to that horse that made it do that. They don’t just act like that all the time. Now GAITED horses (big lick TWH), that is something that happens in at least one class every show, but this happens once every show season at the most with saddlebreds. Usually it won’t even happen once in 5+ years.
Seriously, running in front of the horse and waving your arms around, yelling and screaming is only going to make it worse. Seriously the whole thing is bullshit, the horses blinkers block more than half of the horses sight, it’s light us looking through binoculars. Not to mention the other gear all over them
Everyone of these videos end of the same. A horse has a little episode, and every human being in the arena freaks out and starts running around yelling with their hands flailing. I'm no horse expert, but this seems absolutely stupid.
they're not the only ones. between the audience hooting, the PA blaring, and that distorted loud music i want to leave as well! indeed, without these beautiful animals, it would not be a very nice experience!

I love this announcer he is the one announcing at every show at the fair grounds.

there were kids hooting sharply, it appeared they obtrusively made noises to start trouble. so immature!

This is a Morgan show. They could easily be confused with Saddlebreds
He's limping what happened is he ok?

The driver that kept cutting into the center ring in front of the Judges ruined the classy way this should have been showing in the ring.
I dont understand what the rules are here, is she supposed to be riding tiny circles inside all the other horses?>
At first I couldn’t tell if this was a saddlebred show or not. Then they started cheering. And I knew.
Kristy Gould some of them do. My friend’s saddlebred does
Yes I know they can but they usually don’t call for Saddlebreds to do it in the show ring
Why does that woman keep cutting in the circle instead of following the rest
Because she's an absolute fool..No other reason. Can't drive for toffee.
Why is that groom dressed as Alexander Hamilton?😆
That is the Ringmaster.
WHY DO PEOPLE YELL AND JUMP IN FRONT OF THESE POOR SCARED ANIMALS
Any thing can happen in carriage driving
Where the reck. I didn't see it here.
I wish they had left in who won the class.
That was fortunate the horse stopped.
filmed with a potato

Do these people not realize running after a horse scares it more?!
My grandma was at the show when it happened
Wow
Glad the horse looked uninjured.
he was injured. watch as he walks out. hind end left side.
those people are so quick!
This seems like such a stupid sport, the horses it seems are always spooked
Say that to all the horse riders out there.
Looks fun to me. Horses are dumb animals that get scared all the time.
@Emma Cote It's spelled "they're", not "their." Try to get basic grammar right if you're going to try and lecture others, dummy. lol
they're not the only ones. between the audience hooting, the PA blaring, and that distorted loud music i want to leave as well! indeed, without these beautiful animals, it would not be a very nice experience!
Wasn't that bad
so boring
Then why did you watch
@Robert Daniul you seem like the only one here who knows what they are talking about.
