You know you’re on a good horse when…Some days, I miss the old days galloping the racehorses. I gained a lot of experience and learned an absolute ton from them. One of the most important things they taught me is to appreciate a good, kind, well-adjusted, sensible horse that loves his life—like this one.
I was working on a bracciocephalic stretch and poll release when she pretty much fell asleep on my shoulder. I think I had a pretty special day 🐴♥️

This is one of my favorite exercises for people to do at home between sessions.
They require balance and body control, activating the abdominal and back muscles as your horse bends to reach its treat while lengthening his topline and the entire outside line from his hips to his poll. They also encourage your horse to lift up through its thoracic sling, making baited stretches a great way to improve mobility in the area.
This video is of a young, recently off the track racehorse. You can see just how much effort it takes him to reach the treat. As he gets better at it he will learn to keep his feet square on the ground and weight centered above them while he reaches down and around to the outside of his ankle for the treat. It might help to reduce the effort he’s being asked for as he learns. The next step is to learn to do the same while reaching for the treat between the front side of his ankles. Learn how to do this with your horse -
