I was totally amazed that these two young girls participated in this difficult race. Notice her boots were not even in the stirups. Thanks Martha, Chuck, Candace, John and Tammy. #11720385

I hope the horse is just galloping and not trying to throw those kids off. Great action scene, Emile. #11720471

I never heard of a rescue race (never being to a rodeo - and I call myself a Texan...shame! :) but your capture gives an excellent idea of what it is all about. They look so tiny and the horse so big - not an easy jump up and on top of the horse for the rescue, for sure! All I can say is kudos to them both for a job well done and kudos to you also for the excellent action catch, Mr Emile! #11720564
