Happy Halloween from the Equine Chronicle! We hope you don’t have any spooky moments today – that is, unless you want to!
This is Laura Owen, who had submitted this photo for our Most Embarrassing Show Moments Relived feature in 2022. This horse went on to earn a Reserve in Congress in Trail! See Laura’s story:
Laura Owen:
By nature, I’m pretty hard to embarrass, usually cause I’m in on the joke (I, too, have a photo in a tutu). But probably the most embarrassing was an open show I had taken my 3 year old to for some experience. Now we had w/j/l poles on a longe line and w/j them under saddle. When the class asked for a single pole lope over, I figured at worst, we’d miss the stride and break gait. I’m grateful my friend had her camera ready, because he didn’t hesitate….instead, he took his own initiative.
We went on to win that class and he went on to be reserve at the Congress in trail….so also a reminder to never give up!
