What are facts about barrel racing?

Ok, this will be long. Barrel racing is a sport where mostly women race in a cloverleaf pattern and try to get the fastest time. The best horses for this sport tend to be quarter horses, but I, as a barrel racer, prefer palominos. It is important that the horses used have the athletic ability and are treated like athletes. This sport does not abuse horses because the horses used are properly trained and love what they do. MOST people that race a lot have backup horses as well so that their main horses can get a break. My horse is named Gold Dust and I think there are some really cool names out there. I also like the concept of a registered name and a barn name so I call my horse Firefly. I'm not at a super intense level so I only have one horse. Actually I am just starting but I have known a lot about the sport for a long time. Hope this helps. If you want to know more you should watch a barrel race vlog. I find it easier than explaining it to everyone to have them watch one.
