Broken Rein Winner

Postby da hossman » Wed May 07, 2014 11:13 am

Check out the great ride by Sheldon Russell on Forest King in the 1st race at Arlington last Friday, May 2, 2014. Russell comes from behind along the rail and wins with the outside rein broken and flapping in the wind!

The horse has a full cup run-out blinker but Russell rides hard waving his stick on the outside to help keep the horse straight.

Tremendous ride!
A difference of opinion is what makes horse racing and missionaries.

All I can say is Wow! I would have been hyperventilating!
