You have to buy boots for your kid, and it's best to buy them a helmet and not use the one at the farm. That will run you around $100. Most kids get 1 to 2 lessons a week.

Sweet! Thanks alot! I have just earned myself Father of the year. One of my daughters loves horses, or at least she thinks she does.

Yeah, she'll be really "busy" that whole weekend, but otherwise she would've loved to go.

I say there's 3.5% chances she goes.

I dont watch steeplechase, But I love thoroughbred racing!
I go to Del Mar Racetrack a few times every year, Best place to see a horse race in the US!!!
Santa Anita Race track is alot of fun too.

I even watch horseracing on TVG
