Winner of the Reining Freestyle in KY:

The reining was not that good, but the whole freestyle was imaginative and some of it new, like the lead changes riding backwards:

I know a trick rider that does something similar to that and is very good at it.
Easy it is not.

I wonder what they will think of next?

Wow. When that little horse came out all I could think of was dressage horses.
Those bodies and his are so well developed and his every footfall deliberate, well placed and well pleasing.

It was a little sloppy but still pretty impressive.
