In this episode, we’ll kick things off with a crisp fall update from the ranch, then I’ll share a story from my days galloping racehorses—an experience that taught me a lot about how to handle speed in the saddle. 

Our main topic this month is adapted from one of my live presentations called The Need for Speed—all about helping riders advance their skills so they can ride safely and confidently at higher speeds.

And finally, we’ll wrap up with our What the Hay? Q&A segment, where I’ll answer your questions about a mare’s emotional recovery after her rider falls off, how to master the sitting trot, 

and how to handle the tough situation of an older horse showing signs of lameness.
