Horse Lover Magazine

Last night's Triune Saddle Club show indicated that the club's show season should be a good one. Horselover's staffers were there for the

 pole bending classes. Shelbyville's Chris Pinson was mesmerizing to watch as he and his horse Scoot ran the pole course. Chris and Scoot 

won the adult class with a time of 23.194. 

In a brief interview after his class finished, Chris said that this was the beginning of the season and that he and Scoot  would get even better

as the show season continued.  When asked about keeping his horse wanting to run the poles and balk free, Chris stated that he keeps his

 horse fresh and wanting to run the poles and barrels by giving him a break and taking him on trail rides.  He said that it is important to free

the horse's mind from the pressure of running the poles and barrels all the time. Horselover likes that philosophy!

Ray Hayes (Wartrace, TN) and Shocker placed third in the class. The two made a handsome showing. 

 

The Triune shows are held on Friday evenings and begin at 6:30 p.m.
