We’re not sure what the story behind this 2008 video is. Did the rider fall off? Did the horse just get loose? However this riderless pole bending horse ended up in the arena, one thing’s for sure. He knows his job and he proved it to everyone on that fateful day. Well done, mystery horse.

Now there's a horse that knows his/her job! Shame that stirrup took down a pole! Just hope this was an exposition run of the horse and it didn't lose it's rider on the way in!
Wonderfully well-trained horse...amazing that he/she would run poles with no rider. How would he/she do on barrels?
wow, he knows what to do!
Now there's a horse that knows his job! Just hoping the rider didn't fall off coming into the run!
See, I don't need no whips and spurs, just let me do my job!
This is how it's done! Don't need no rider!
Okay, great run, shame the stirrup took out a pole! He had the time to beat!
