- Spirit's Journey -

2008 - For every horse enthusiast familiar with the legendary Road to the Horse event, which gives three clinicians three hours to break a previously untouched horse - one question always looms. "What happens to the colts after the event?"

Clinician Tommy Garland, a competitor at the 2008 & 2009 Road to the Horse event is doing his part to answer that question through a series of YouTube videos chronicling the training progress of his colt from the competition.

Tommy purchased the colt from Woods Quarter Horses in Heber Springs , Arkansas after the first day of competition at this year's Road to the Horse. His son, TJ promptly dubbed the colt Spirit in honor of the Disney character to which he bears a striking resemblance.

UPDATE: Tommy still says Spirits name fits. "Spirit really ignited people's interest after RTTH and he has certainly lived up to his name. In all honesty he's a 'ham' in front of a crowd and he definitely has a mischevious and fun-loving personality! Crowds love him and he's certainly entertaining both in and outside the public eye! I'm thrilled with the progress he's made since I bought him. He's home."
