OOOOOh, that's AWESOME!!! I'm so excited for you! Of course I think he should have been FIRST, lol, but second is terrific and I know that's why he'll be in the Championship. Yay, Sport!

I really like the way Tommy rides. You have chosen well using him as a trainer. He doesn't weigh 400 lbs., for starters, or sit too far on Sport's kidneys, or saw with his hands, all of which I've seen ASB trainers do. He really has good hands and a sympathetic connection with the horse, and does NOT overuse the curb.

Thanks so much for sharing this video, it was great fun to watch it! I think I recognize the announcer's voice, too. Would not be surprised if it's the same fellow we had here at the St. Louis National Charity.
