The Road to Horse is an annual event where the country's tops trainers compete to show their skills. A Remuda (or group of horses) is chosen that are similar in age (2) and conformation. They want the trainers to have a level playing field as much as possible for the competition.In 2006, Stacy Westfall was the first woman trainer to compete. She not only competed...she WON! The horse she trained during the Road to the Horse she actually decided to buy during the show at the end of the competition where they compete with the horses they trained. She named him Popcorn.

I just watched a video of Stacy Westfall's Championship Freestyle Reining with NO SADDLE, NO BRIDLE, NO NECKROPE! I own two horses and strive to be like Stacy and have the type of communication she has with her horses. I have one horse that we are using for barrel racing and the other is a good all around paint horse. The paint horse "Poncho" is very attuned to leg pressure. He just turns five this year and I have owned him for 2 wonderful years. I would love to try reining and Stacy has really given me the hope that I can reach a level of relationship with my horse that I previously did not think possible.I can hardly wait to get to the barn tonight to start working on some reining patterns! Aside from that, I just found out that Stacy and her horse Roxy are performing at the Equine Affaire in Columbus, OH, which I have already purchased tickets to see! I am doubly doubly excited now to go and see her perform at the Pfizer Fantasia show. If you want to cry like I did...you should check out the video of Stacy at the All American Quarter Horse Congress in 2006 on YouTube... it is amazing: Index for Pennsylvania
