Welcome to Mustang Ridge Stables! Here we specialize in Western riding! Feel free to browse our many stables, pastures, outdoor and indoor arenas, and our rodeo grounds! We have many boarders here who train for many competitions. Will you be the next champion?

Rules

* You don't need to be both horse and trainer/rider, you can be someone elses horse or someone elses trainer/owner if they accept it

* I'd prefer to keep genders of humans even, and genders of horses even. I don't want all girls or vise versa

* You can pick any Western/rodeo event from this list to practice:
- Cutting
- Barrel racing
- Pole bending
- Team roping
- Western pleasure

- Reining

However, all of these events will be included in each competition.

* Follow the Forum rules, obviously.

* You don't need to be detailed with your characters' personalities, descriptions, and bios, but you can if you want.

* PLEASE be detailed with your replies. Along with having proper grammar and punctuation.

* Have fun!

Harleigh took a deep breath as she lead her horse to it's designated stable. It was her first year at Mustang Ridge Stables, but she was going to make the best of it. Once she found her stable, she went around making her horse, Breezinc, comfortable in the stall.

Blue let out a shrill call, and jumped up and down, kicking the stall walls. She reared up and crashed down throwing her mane around. She started running in small circles, and rearing.

Brooklyn walked into the barn, her bag slung across her left shoulder. She started walking around, looking at all the horses. Like she usually did.

Harleigh leaped away from the neighboring stall as the horse in it kicked at the walls. She rushed out and saw the horse kicking at all the walls.

Sweet swung his head from side to side, snorting at the humans that entered the barn. He flicked his ears towards the entrance of the barn, waiting like he always did for that one special human to come in and sneak him a treat. The paint horse danced around in his stall and nickered slightly. 

Derek opened the barn door slightly, waiting at the entrance to let his eyes adjust. He waved at Harleigh, laughing slightly as she leapt away from one of the stalls. "Hey, Harleigh. She scaring ya?" He said, smiling and nodding towards the rearing horse. He turned and saw Brooklyn looking at the horses, he decided to wave at her. He rubbed his hand through his dark brown hair and closed the door. 

Harleigh whirled around, "She gave me a heart attack, and you nearly did too."
