DRAMA at the start! Will Buick is head-butted by an adjacent horse but the starter let's them go!

- The first race of Cazoo Derby day 2022 proved unexpectedly dramatic when the starter let the horses go while not realising William Buick was not fully aboard his mount having been hit in the face by a horse in the adjacent stall.
Buick was waiting for the start of the Cazoo Handicap aboard the well-fancied Blue Trail when the horse drawn next to him, Approachability, swung round and gave him a hefty blow to the head.
The incident was captured by an overhead camera. Seconds later, the race began but Buick, a bit like a boxer having taken a heavy punch, was still recovering, perched on the infrastructure. Blue Trail ran off on his own but was later deemed to be a non-runner for betting purposes. Buick was checked by medics after the race and passed fit to continue riding.

Come on..give that disciplined horse some kind of award. He outran every horse there, stayed in formation and dug in every time another closed in. I was cheering for him 👏📣💕
All the hôerays for this horse! Damm what a champion!
Except he had no weight to carry.
Me too was cheering 😂🎉
You were cheering for him, who doesn't!!! :o))
75kg less, but dermened to run
The loose horse was great. He remembered his training and ran a great race.
Cost the second horse the race
The loose horse won, and did it without the jockey.
@@VK-qe7if disqualified and Carried less weight than the field
@@TheBushRanger. to those who 'dis' the loose horse..watch the race again...the horse's ears would pin back each time he dug in ..lol...he WANTED to run!!..LOL..
WITHOUT A CROP
💙 Blue Trail is the winner in my book!!!!!!
He didn't need to run, but did, heart of a champion 🏆!
Not his fault the horse beside him knocked the jockey flat out
Just goes to show they will run without getting whipped on just as well or better
@@bellasue02 agreed, they kept calling him the horse in the way. 🤭 He was jipped.
Blue Trail won!!
@@birgitschenk6569 yup
Proves they don't need to beat the crap out of them to win.
I would like to see them race with no jockey. I don think a jockey is needed except in training them to run. Not for the actual race.
Actually they beat the crap out of them allready when they are still foals
And even though the others got whipped, they couldn’t pass him.
I was about to comment about this. Horses don't need to be beaten to hell to win a race. This horse was clearly trained well and knew his job he didn't need to be beaten to win.
Exactly what I was thinking too.
The horse is well trained; knew how to stay close to the railing to save distance and fought back to win the race
He was totally Brilliant!
Yeah u r right. My eyes were on him. What a well trained horse 😘😘😘
What idiotic comments. The loose horse followed a strategy? Are you serious?
@@stavrosnicolaou4702 You do realize these horses were trained for competitive running since birth , right? Otherwise their owners wouldn't splash cash to buy them.
@@stavrosnicolaou4702 u r looking idiotic right now to the world 😂 by ur opinion. U can't see n u have no sense something happening right there.
The fact that the horse won without a jockey really makes me wonder.
Herd dynamic flight response
No jockey means no extra weight, apart from the saddle
No Jockey = Lighter + more aerodynamic + balanced. However, it is impressive how instinctively it raced. Almost seems you could have them race like greyhounds without the jockey. lol.
Im aware its lighter, but I was thinking more of the horse ran just as fast without being whipped by the jockey
is it valid winner or disqualified😢
I could just imagine Blue Trail saying I gotta win, I gotta win, I’m gonna win. I WON.
The loose horse did great! He sure loves his job of racing... well done... shame on the one who opened the gate without checking on the jockey who got hurt first. Some horses could have gotten hurt.
Horses are herd animals, he went with the herd. That's the only reason he kept running. But he still did well, and should have been declared the winner 🏆
The loose horse has the heart of a champion. He wasn't just running with the herd he wanted to be in front. That's what great race horses do.
My dad had race horses, his last one was this way. Even on trail rides he had to be in front. True competitors have to be in front. Great example of how much horses love to run and when they are giving everything you don't need to hit them. BTW that can be a distraction to some horses.
@@VK-qe7if yeah, horses are herd animals, but then shouldn't he go with the herd? He was acctively accelerating on the finish, got faster when he saw horses coming closer
@@redhood5689 I think he just wanted to get in the front. Some horses are like that. 🐴😊
They probably don't even care if you died at the start gate let's continue the race
Blue trail should be declared the winner 💙
He was amazing !!
Absolutely!
SO AGREE! HE WON
Ngl the horse had a weight advantage but even the horse being able to know what to do on his own is impressive
That the horse knew when to quicken up for the final post is amazing.
How he pushed ahead instead of staying behind in the pack
does says something about horses that win.
The starter should be fired for incompetence. He’s standing on an elevated stage so he can see into the starting barriers. The barrier attendants would have been shouting that there was a safety incident, yet he still opened the barrier, thereby putting Will Buick in more danger as the horse took off without Buick correctly seated with feet in the irons and a hand on the reins.
Totally agree!! Should have been delayed- what the heck!! All kinds of wrong here
❤
I absolutely agree! It was definitely an added risk, and the gate shouldn't have been opened until the rider was deemed able to continue. 😮
I’m sure he can run much faster without someone on his back. 😂
If I was getting whipped every step I'd run slower too
They visibly not getting whipped every step. You don’t have to like it or racing, but don’t make up nonsense to fit your narrative.
Much more fun for the horse too.
@@ciderlord4621 they only get wipped 8 times and they pretend to wip them so they go faster
Right ?! 😑😆
He did it ALL BY HIMSELF! He didn't need whips, he didn't need goading, he wanted to run and he RAN. What a first class act, trainers should pay attention and listen to their horses.
And at the end of the race he drifted out and blocked a horse who was coming up very fast. Jockeys do a lot more than just sit there and hit a horse.
Not to mention "whipping" them isn't as horrendous as u imagine, ur comparing it to whipping a human not a very large tough skinned thick muscled animal that would barely notice a tap in a heightened focus situation, as majestic as they are they are also powerful and dangerous
@@cryptouk7985Bro here is really defending animal abuse... wtf am I seeing?!
@@intelligenzbestie3121 see if you just get emotional and try attack people's points you won't get anywhere. Is whipping animal abuse ? If you whip a rat yes . If you whip a horse with an intended torture device yes. A horse "whip" is specifically designed and jockeys know how hard to hit . Don't be a child
@@intelligenzbestie3121 Using a whip isn't animal abuse. Every tool can be used to abuse an animal if used incorrectly, like dog leashes and so many other things. A horse's skin is so much tougher than a human's, plus they have a layer of fur. Don't talk about things you have no knowledge about.
They keep saying "Buick wasn't ready" as if he was just fannying about wasting time when in fact he had all but just lost his brain out of his left earhole 😆
TOTALLY, HE WAS PRACTICALLY KNOCKED OUT THAT WAS A WICKED BLOW TO THE HEAD I bet it went black for a bit for him, ( I was head butted and was almost knocked unconscious so I speak from experience)
@@metalkingtohorses when he got hit you can tell it definitely confused him totally threw him off his game and his horse
@@goodgreif5838 I GOT HIT IN THE HEAD BY MY HORSE AND SAW STARS AND IT WENT BLACK AND I ALMOST FELL OVER SO YA HE PROBABLY COULDNT SEE FOR A FEW SECONDS
I feel sorry for the head butted jockey of course, and I'm glad he's ok but what a great little horse Blue Trail was to run that race, he knew what his mission was and he done it in style !!
That horse knows exactly what he's out there to do!
You can see how fast horses can run without hitting them. Just free without let and pain.😓🙏🏻
He's running faster because he's not carrying the weight of the jockey, not because of the lack of whip
@@LightingInvoker
Yes, that is of course the main reason. 😇👍🏻😉 But he doesn't have to endure the whipping.😢
He's also running with the herd!
@@Actioncam_Adventure the whips used for racing are made for the sound to keep the horse going unless they're used improperly
Why can't horse just go without a jockey on their backs?
That horse said “ I don’t need no damn jockey, I got this!”
I was accidentally head butted by my own horse several years ago. I was out cold on the ground for about 10 minutes. It was the hardest hit I ever got.
I can sympathise as it happened to me. Fortunately he had his hat on I didn't. If only people realised he was really lucky. I got away with knocked out and stitches to my eye..
Jeez did you fully recover from it?
@@suemaher5282 did you recover from it sue? I got ko’d recently and it’s been shit
@@TheBushRanger. I did Ryan but I now make sure I'm more careful with their heads. Hope u recover I can tell u that u won't forget it.
Damn, horses really must have the strongest body
The horse understood the assignment 😂😭😭
To all the people saying that the horse didn't need the jockey to win, obviously the loose horse is going to run better by not having to carry the weight of the jockey.
You are a genius
MIT student ? ( Moron in training)
But it doesn’t mean the horse is going to strive to win without the jockey urging him on! This horse is a true athlete!
@@deborahswanson8457 Actually, all Thoroughbreds have the same heart, but this horse was using his fight or flight mentality to win, something bad happened in the chute and it frightened the horse and then flight kicked in rider or not.
@@justanotherchannelfornow2846 no they have to be trained to do that. They have to want to win and every horse is different. To say 'all thoroughbreds have the same heart' is a massive over simplification.
It's quite amazing that the race was validated at all! The starter ought to be sent for a holiday. All the runners are meant to be given a fair chance. This is oblivious not the case.this race should be called void, end of the story. There's an urgent need for an assistant starter to make sure the start can be given .
Yes. Blue Trail was cheated out of a win, and he probably would have won it with a jockey on his back, but his efforts were ignored due to the gates opening before the jockey was recovered and ready.
And in few years
"This is how race of horses without Jockeys started"
Yet the idiots in charge still thought it was a sensible move to let off fireworks while the Derby runners were being loaded.
They did that?
@@bellasue02 Indeed they did. Hard to believe they actually work in the racing industry.
Yea I saw that! - unbelievable!
The win will count or no not important but the HORSE ran so well as if he knows it's race n he ran in group n at end he pushed himself as if he knows how to win it. Touched my heart ❤️. So clever, focused. It completed the race without master. Falling short fir words ❤️❤️❤️.
Did the horse without a rider win the race?
@@IcePonyGoddess he is disqualified due to not having the jockey on board. I’ve always thought it would be great to let the riderless horse be declared the winner, after all, it’s a horse race and they show that they can get the job done. I know someone will want to lay out the rules , I just think it shows a lot from the horse that keeps competing and wins. Have a great day everyone !
♥
Brilliant
@@leert2698 aww but I tell u I had tears in my eyes when I saw this horse racing n ending it like pro ❤️. These animals are so clever. He did his job so perfect ❤️❤️❤️. Of course there may b rules for his disqualify but it was the event mistake too. I showed this video to my children n o God animals are so pure. ❤️❤️❤️
True Definition of "HORSE RACE" not Jokey Race. It sounds like a landmark lawsuit for the WINNER'S CIRCLE! Best to you #4. You were BLESSED with WORLD PEACE and no need for backpain killers. What a day!
The best horse race ever❤Hope the rider recovers asap. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Having worked w/ TB's ( in the US ) , a loose horse is dangerous as at any time it can interfere w/ the safety of the others . Fortunately this was a safe trip except for the injured jockey - hope he recovered ok .
Wow! The horse did so great even with out the rider but I am also glad the rider is ok!
The Blue Horse won for all of us..!!!
He flies like a wind. He is the real winner.! 🏆 🎉😁
Does it count if the riderless horse wins?? 🤔 He was in the lead all the way. He ran a great race and won....lol 😃
No. The loose horse has an unfair advantage, he's not carrying the weight of the jockey, so he's automatically disqualified from winning.
No the rider has to stay on
Technically the horse won because its horse racing not jockey racing it’s all about the horses the horses speed stamina etc the jockey is only there to guide the horse and that’s it so blue trail technically won and whoever thought of the rule that a horse needs A jockey to win was probably drunk or on something because it’s all About the horses not the jockey so they should get rid of this dumb stupid rule because it’s pointless and defies what horse racing is horse racing is about the horses only not the jockey
Glad the Jockey is ok just initially was in pain from the accident with the horses in the gate. Melts my heart how the loose racehorse is loving their run on the track with the others. ❤️
That is why both the horse and the rider are given a trophy for every competion. But this one ? He is a freaking CHAMPION ❤
Well, this is one reason why the stalls are larger in the starting gates in the US, and why an assistant starter is standing on the ledge of each stall holding the horse's head straight and ready for the start. In the States, Buick would not have gotten hit in the head by the horse next to him, because the assistant starter would have been holding the horse preventing him from swinging his head to the side when he reared. Also, the assistant starters begin yelling very loudly to the starter to wait when anything happens with a horse, or when a jockey is not properly on the horse ready for the start.
I was listening to Monty Roberts and he was talking about our racing and said the stalls are too small as u say he said in the USA they are bigger. He is right. He is responsible for the Monty Robert's coat for horses entering the stall with issues of the metal touching them. I totally agree with u and Monty Suzanne
how could anyone be holding the horse? no 'assistant starter' would be in that position at that point. These horses are getting ready to start
@@elastronaute1198 you should watch some horseracing videos from the US. The starting gates are wider than those in Europe and elsewhere. Each horse is held by an assistant starter who is standing on the ledge of the stall on the left side of the horse and jockey. They hold the horse's head straight and pointing forward ready for the start. They let go just as the gate opens.
@@suemaher5282 I attended a live demonstration that Monty Roberts put on over 20 years ago. He was great with the horses and was a great speaker, not only about horses but about life in general. He and his wife have also sponsored many foster children and made a difference in their lives. I bought his book and he autographed it for me. I spoke to him briefly about a Thoroughbred broodmare I had recently purchased who was a little difficult to handle. He knew the sire because he had stood in California, and said that was a trait of his offspring. Your comment brought that memory back to me. Thanks.
@@suzanneyoung8011 okay fair enough I don't really watch American racing, however I would say this is probably not really needed as horses rarely have this issue here. I mean what we saw here I've not witnessed that before. Although with the 2 year olds they do often play up in the gates and sometimes even get under the gate and get free if they're especially determined. So yes there are issues but we cope.
Congratulations to the horse
Clearly most of the commenters here, as well as the “Bozo” commenters in top hats, have never been hit in the head by a horse. Trust me you never forget it. And that was a particularly hard hit. The jockey came close to being knocked out.
I did. About a gallon of blood shot out of my nose and I had 2 black eyes. There was no way to cover it with makeup and was very sore regardless of what Amber says
As well as the knock coming from the side!
good, one less horse abuser in the world /on mom acc/
@@margih7374 yeah, damage to the temple was a real risk.
Exactly ! I've got a scar and a droopy eyelid from getting hit by a Colt throwing his head into me.
What a well disciplined horse Blue trail you is in this race. Literally ran its own race. Wasn’t flogged at the end to push harder to win. This is what horse racing should be. Jockey there or not. Jockey’s should be there to guide for safety not to flog the horse to win. They don’t run the race the horse does. What a champion horse 🐎
I wasn't expecting the jockey being left at the gate.
That was kind of funny but thank God he was.
Look, I know the horse doesn't have the weight of the jockey but look at how fast he's running without getting whipped and stuff!! And he looks like he's winning without much effort honestly😅
And enjoying himself.
Wow, great idea racing without jockeys
😂 I just know those other riders feel ashamed that a loose horse beat them. He should just get the prize!
stalls are way too short in the UK's starting gates!! was watching racing yesterday and was surprised by this layout. Horses' heads are all bone and are very dangerous.
I don't understand your point though you may well be right. Shortly before the start all the horses and jockeys will want to be roughly level. If a horse does this, the only way to be sure of preventing contact would be wider stalls or dead space in between them. How would leaving dead space behind or in front of the horses help?
Not too short, too narrow
Aren’t all mammals heads all bone?
Lucky that Buick had his legs on the stalls or he was in big trouble. Shocking that the starter has let that go but then again unless somebody alerts him to what has happened he wouldn't be any the wiser.
They tried to... they couldn't hear eachother over the noise of the helicopters
Lucky that he had the hat on too it definitely did its job. Could have been nasty had his legs been in stirrups.
@@dendro1234 Even in the 21st century we cant get things right, I mean what was the fireworks about before the Derby? It just beggars belief!!
Buick didn’t even get hit by the horse lol
@@suemaher5282 It looked like his right foot was in the stirrup.
That loose horse knew exactly where the wire was
That horse literally won. The loose horse won. Wow, what a horse that would be to own.
I would like to see the horses race without jockeys. All the time.
Now that would be horse racing.. I've always wanted to see that myself.
Oh yes!
It’s so much better too, it makes them faster and they aren’t beating the crap out of them
@@ILuvPopcorntheponyI very much agree!
Agreed! They could have individual but clear shoots, so the horses can still see each other and hear each other so they are competing against one another.
The loose horse should have won that because the rider was injured.. there is no team in I.. so when a mans down you gotta complete the duo. The horse alone.. done better than all of them. 👍
Kudos to Blue Trail. The show must go on, baby.
You mean to tell me the loose horse didn't get the win??
This is crazy! He Won!!
No he didn't, he's carrying no weight compared to the other horses with riders.
Technically the horse won because its horse racing not jockey racing it’s all about the horses the horses speed stamina etc the jockey is only there to guide the horse and that’s it so blue trail technically won and whoever thought of the rule that a horse needs A jockey to win was probably drunk or on something because it’s all About the horses not the jockey so they should get rid of this dumb stupid rule because it’s pointless and defies what horse racing is horse racing is about the horses only not the jockey
Как же эта лошадь хотела выиграть этот забег, что даже не обращая внимания на то, что на ней нет наездника. Она умница.😃👍🏻
Если бы у неё был разум, то она подумала бы: а на фиг оно мне надо, всё равно накормят! А так, она привыкла делать то, что от неё требуют и всё.
Awesome job for the horse without the jockey. He definitely was the 🏆 🥇
So glad the jockey was ok, after that whack from the other horse he might not have been in a 'çlear' state to ride that race..needing a check over & time to settle from the shock. Kudo's to the horse though he did a good job on his own! G'day from Aus🦘
I love horses and all I can say is THIS IS GROSS - - the lack of concern for the jockey practically knocked unconscious at the start - - letting a race start and continue with a riderless horse - - BRUTAL GREEDY COMPETITION - - JUST DISGUSTING.
It had to be oversight. The crew at the starting gate usually is very
concerned about safety. That is their only job.
They need to have emergency buttons in each one of those stalls, that jockey and other caretakers can press, in a situation like this.
Or they need to get American style gates which are wider and have an assistant sitting on the wider gate holding the horse’s head.
It's part of the starters job to make sure the horses and riders are settled in and ready for the gates opening.
The starter acted negligently in allowing this race to commence.
It would have taken only a few moments to remove Buick and Blue Trail from the starting gain.
He's fortunate Buick didn't fall and get trampled in the gate.
Buick was clearly rattled by the hit and likely wouldn't have been able to hit a button even if needed.
A big problem not mentioned here is horses being in a mortal panic in the gates. It's negligent lack of care & preparation by trainers/owners. Horses can be confident in the gates and still keen as heck to run... with even better performance having not wasted so much energy in fear behaviors.
Под номером 4 - лучшая!!! Браво!!!✌️🐎👏👏👏♥️😀 Благодарю за эмоциональное видео!
What do we need Jockeys for if horses like this show so much heart and love of the sport within themselves. This was amazing of course.
Loose horse deserves the win on this!
The loose horse knew the assignment and ran a great race! I hope he received some kind of recognition
Whilst I agree the horse is well trained and knew his job - a reminder that he can run faster when he doesn't have a 45-50kg rider on him which is why he was able to hold out so well at the front.
This horse was amazing won and no crop required xxx
I Agree They Don't Need To Be Whipped At All They Know What's Right Excellent Win Excellent Horse 🪂
Just before the horse reared up, Will was chatting to the jockey next to him and it was just as if, the other jockeys horse, leaned over, to tell Will to to SHUT UP then bashed him in the head for good measure. It was extraordinary.
some of you guys have never been in striking distance of a rearing horse and it shows
Too many times the race has gone ahead recently when the stall crew have shouted for a halt....This could have been dreadful,visions of jockey being dragged etc,and as others have said,who on earth thought it was a good idea to set fireworks off?. It was bad enough to upset some horses at the start let alone the horses nearer to the stands. I've written to the B.H.A but, I won't hold my breath.
And give it to them with both barrels! As luck would have the jockey who was hit was too groggy and stunned to hold onto the horse. Thank heavens!
FOCUSED
Loose horse deserves to be a happy stallion living a good life in the fields and grasses.
the horse put on the infinity gauntlet and said "fine I'll do it myself"
I love that he’s winning!!!💕. Very glad everything turned out safely but it’s a bummer all that prep and effort to not be able to be in the race. What’s up starter guy?!?
The horse was like “I got u bro”
That sort of thing can completely change the trajectory of a race, I'd want my money back and a full investigation carried out, not right really
He lost the race by elimination but WON OUR HEARTS. ❤❤❤❤
Number 4''s name was Blue Trail, his jockey was Bill Buick. The horse was eliminated . While he did not win the derby, He forever won our hearts. ❤❤❤❤
WOW!!! This was really SHOCKING, it could have been really NASTY for Buick- Thank God was not hurt badly!!!
Nasty how?
It was nasty had a hell of a headache and he was off the winner of the race
Why on earth didn’t the stall staff shout out to whoever is in charge out the back.
They did
There are idiots everywhere....
Interesting how the Blue Trail beat the other horses in terms of speed without being whipped. Seems like they aren't necessary.
Blue Trail also had a huge weight advantage
@@Shyhearted That doesn't negate my point about whips being totally unnecessary.

#4 horse ran a darn nice race.
I’m Proud of that racehorse but still raced like “I WILL WIN THIS FOR YOU”
He said word you hit my rider? Alright he wins
That's exactly why they should have assistant starters inside the gate with them, holding on to the horses bridle and keeping their head pointed straight ahead while waiting for the gate to open, like we do here in the U.S.A... The starter did a terrible job not noticing the rider had fallen to the side after getting his bell rung. He should have never pushed the button.. 😞
The jockey got a good solid smack from the other horse. The hurts 🤕
I love that the horse tan cause he wanted to! I hope that poor guy is ok- bless his heart
That rattled my bones. Pretty dangerous too. The starter needs to be a little more observant.
That was awsum I feel he should still win n get the frist place
I'd be fascinated to watch a riderless horse race. If it could be rigged up so they could run safely loose up the track, it would be really interesting to see how it went.
it would he interesting, but having jockeys does make it safer, ironically. like you said, it'd have to be set up very carefully and even then, it would be pretty unpredictable and unsafe.
Wow.And he won the race🤣Without a hit to his skin by the fuete😆Good job.The horse have fun.
"It's almost as though he was completely unaware".... dude just got hit it the head, of course he wasn't 😅
At what point does the racing commission, or whoever's actually in charge, start taking people "out behind the barn" ?
I understand that disruptions like fireworks and 'accidents' like this haven't been a rare occurrence.
Is that true ?
I like to think Blue Trail ran hard to win in dedication to its jockey.
Oh my God ! Did no one see ? WTF happened , the handlers didn't try to stop, the starter to be fair must have thought everything was ok If, nobody called out to him.
They tried to alert the starter, nobody could hear over the noise of the helicopters
Buick was being a baby anyway acting like he was hurt? Horse didn’t even touch him
@@JPwhoknows that is not true. You are an idiot to think that a jockey would try and stop an entire race and ruin the day for thousands of people for something so selfish. I can clearly see in the images that the horse turned into his stall and swung right into his eyes. As well as the concerned looks on the handlers, jockeys and other people who were in the frames. His face was also a bit pale afterwards which does NOT happen to a jockey that has faked an injury. I know because I have fallen off many horses and my siblings have been thrown from horses or smacked by horses like this jockey was. We end up injured with back and head injuries EVERY SINGLE TIME. And guess what, we look like this jockey did EVERY SINGLE TIME. He is not being a baby. The starter was being selfish and did not pay attention to the welfare of the jockeys before starting the race. They could have avoided the loose horse if they had waited just a few more minutes.
@@JPwhoknowsyou can literally see him get bashed by the horse’s head.
@@molybdomancer195 he’s a melt
The loose horse WON! And he didn't interfere with any other horse. God bless him.
Obviously the starter wasn't aware the jockey was nearly knocked out!!
The jockey was probably pissed off lol
Horse won without rider
this proves that you don’t need to whip you horse to win
Indeed
BLUE TRAIL FOR THE WIN!!!!!! What exceptional training! He held his lane and knew instinctively when to punch it for the win! ......who needs jockeys!!? Lol
Comment continued... that said, the Jockey aboard next gate, is obviously concerned, & reaching out, whilst maintaining his own seat & horse, knowing the danger of losing his own balance & control, he was trying to communicate with Buick. Announcer says other Jockeys were aware & shouting. The starter wasn't doing his job of confirming all ready.
Jeeezzz! Seasoned Jockey, Mr W Buick, gets cold head slammed, & is obviously dazed, & thankfully had the wherewithal & instincts to grab railing & release rein & hang on to rail as his horse started.
It hurts to see the others really hit the horse, especially right next to a horse that does it completely without any of that
Blue trail still won tho!😂loved that!
Number 4 won all by himself. He knew what to do. I was cheering him on and also praying nothing terrible would happen. Unfortunately Number 4 gets nothing for beating the other horses.
Horse head like being hit with a sledgehammer all bone bet that hurt. Bad to let gates open never seen that before. Tough cookie Buick
Didn’t even touch him🤣
