Listen "Anthony Patch: From "Dangerous" to 5 Stars"
Episode Synopsis
Anthony Patch, a failed racing thoroughbred better known as "Al" (#goalgo) to his fans, was bought as a "dangerous" four-year-old by Lainey Ashker as her next Eventing prospect. Despite his quirks (although the quirky ones are the best ones, according to Lainey), Lainey brought him up through the levels, teaching him everything from jumping corners to standing in ice boots. The pair competed at big tracks such as the Kentucky 3-day and Burghley. Al had all the scope in the world, but he demanded accuracy and perfection, and Lainey credits him for making her the rider she is today and for teaching her a more refined style of riding that's necessary to compete at the top levels of Eventing.Support the showWant to learn more about your horse's individual needs and motivations?
