Siete

Sunday was the last barrel race at Great Bend so we took Siete and Hero. They started at noon with a barbecue and then started running at 2. I didn't eat hardly anything. I didn't know how Siete would do and I don't like working hard on a full stomach. She's been there once before and hadn't had a problem. As soon as I got on I knew I was going to have to work. She didn't want to go. I had to work hard to get her moving. Then everything bothered her. She looked at stuff she's seen before and her eyes were big as saucers. To make it worse there were little kids racing all over and mostly out of control. One came full speed from behind and almost hit us.Siete jumped and actually started bucking a little. I calmed her down and we got going again. I just kept working at it and finally she was going decently. We were both soaked. I took her out Monday night and it was uneventful.
