This is a very curious description...two horses and riders just
"happen" to be out riding part of the Tevis trail at the very same time that
Potato just "happens" to be pushing for the finish line, and there were reports
of two horses joining Potato and may have been pacing him...does this strike
anyone else as a bit peculiar?
They might not have felt silly at all...

We stayed around for a while longer to see if anyone else was close. It
was well after 11 pm when we decided to call it a day. Walking back to
the truck we heard everyone cheering and yelling. We could see two grey horses
trotting over the finish line. Cameras were flashing as a photographer took
photos of them both crossing the finish line. My husband ran back down to see
who it was and heard the rider of one horse saying "We weren't in the race".
We laughed at how silly they must have felt. They "finished" the Tevis and
have photos to prove it!! We were wondering just how many other non Tevis
riders were out riding on the Western States Trail on this day?

Happily back in California!
