Was that the sorrel and white overo I saw that mashed the girls leg? Honestly if so it was more a rider issue then the horse..she was hitting him to cross but not telling him where to go...if he had listened to her and gone he would have had to jump the thing and end up on a 4 foot cliff...she (the girl) was sure not using her head to negotiate the obsticle..
If I had not been on the stud I would have gotten off and helped her...sorry Vence is not good at ponying either..
Maybe a piggyback push but thats about it...
there was one part that was more narrow then a deer crossing and went downhill to the stream it was down that hill I decided to put my coat on..and then could not get my hands threw...was like a cripple with no hands trying to get threw 12" of mud and up the other side..
