Cosmo and I attended the NEK Equine Expo’s Ranch Challenge this past Sunday.
Cows are a huge fear for Cosmo so for him to even enter the arena is a win. I really thought we were gonna have to scratch. He was very distracted after the cow obstacle and it showed in the results. Overall, I’m very proud of him as I wasn’t expecting anything other than trying to enter the arena. There was log crossing, water crossing, magnet shoe fishing, back through, cows, side pass, tree drag, bridge, flag, ground tying, remounting, and trailer loading.
I saw a few familiar faces there. Did anyone go that I missed?
Huge thank you to Shayla Crowley with Broken Bit Photography for capturing these photos. They’re absolutely gorgeous!
