Day One with a Wild Mustang | Mustang Magic 2023

I was invited to compete in Mustang Magic 2023! MHF invites a group of trainers to compete, 100 day Extreme Mustang Makeover style, in Fort Worth Texas during the stock show. The mustang assigning process was different this time... normally they're randomly assigned to you but MHF decided to switch it up this year. We drew a random number, and trainers were able to pick in that order which horse they wanted to train. I drew #20 out of 33 trainers. This mare was not my #1 pick but she was high up on my alternatives list! I'm having a bit of a delay training since I had to go to CA to drop Newt (2022 TX EMM Mustang) off and get him settled. I'll be about a week behind the other trainers, but I'm excited to get to work!
Big thank you to ‪@IsidroEspinozaHorsemanship‬ for hauling her for me and letting me start her here. The end of the video is our first session together! The rest of day one will be in the next video... stay tuned!
