As horsepeople, there are a lot of misconceptions about what we do. The non-horsey folks seem to think we’re:

Filthy Rich
Somehow involved in Thoroughbred racing
Stuck in our own unrealistic childhood dreams
All of the above.

But it’s not just the equestrian-unacquainted who don’t quite grasp what we do. We’re often misunderstood by our trainers, our families, and at times, even our own selves.

This latest video from Evention TV shows a few of the ways riders are misunderstood by those around them. Can you relate?

I love these two. I watch their videos all the time. They have much to contribute to the horse world. Their parents should be proud.
