Re: [Norton AntiSpam] Re: [RC] FW: [RC] [RC] horses at the track - Sisu West Ranch

"...old JH think you were going to kill him, he just might have taken
the next three to actually kill you :-( . Not everything works on all
horses...."

I will continue to maintain that if even John Henry had been taught to have good manners, and not to bite FROM THE DAY HE WAS BORN, he would have learned the lesson. Note that he was trained to do a lot of things, like be harnessed, trot (or pace, I can't remember which he was) behind the pace car and not attack the horses on each side, etc. These things are as much against the nature of an unsocialized horse as not biting people.

As for as the possibilities of retraining him as an aged gelding, I will agree with Truman it probably would have been almost impossible.
