Re: RC: Geldings Masquerading as Stallions

That stallion, though he was still all over the place the day of the 
ride, got one of the top 5 BC awards in a very competitive field. 
The rider is well aware of the work she needs to do with this 
horse....she'd better do it before bringing him to a ride again, or 
she'll be lynched!  (I'll be first in line)
