was at a trailblazers show today at Gracelands EC. if any of you have been there before you will know what it is like and the general layout of the place.

basically there is a little "watching area" where you can take your horses in with you (its indoors by the way) and stand and watch. next to that is some steps that lead up to a watching area for spectators.

anyway, so this 4yr old mare was stood with her owner in the watching area for horses and it was stood there shaking, obviously terrified. as it was very busy, a girl accidently walked into the bum of this mare, and it literally went phsyco!

it galloped off in this cramped waiting area and ran into a pony and then JUMPED the pony (honestly!), managed to get up the steps to the spectator area and jumped over the edge and into the main arena! and the fence around the main area wasnt small, probs about 5ft if not bigger!

yet it was fine, a few scratches but nothing serious. was totally shocking!

im really against galleries allowing horses in as its a disater zone waiting to happen, luckily no1 got hurt today but it cud have been a very different story. and for christ sake y take a 4yr old in there as if the horse wasnt nervous enough from being at a show
