I could see his hoof prints digging in so I knew that I must be giving him a shake.

It's going to give me another 10 years in the saddle.

They're pretty excited. Racing is what they're thinking about.

I don't have a problem with it. My only concern is that they're far enough off the trail to not distract the dogs.

Even when he could no longer call a show (giving cues and the like), he had so much to impart, so much experience to share, it was terrific to have him here. We're glad that through the final days he really was here.

The whole team really competed hard and did what they had to do to avoid giving up extra points. I thought everyone stepped up.
