No preface whom ever is trouble they try to rescue. Unfortunately on Thursday nights race a horse broke it leg and they couldn't get his head out of the water and the horse had to be destroyed. In the past PETA has been here trying to cause trouble. A horse thrashing in water is not a fun thing to be around.

Ah ha, an aptly named race in that case.
I hope the rescue team choose to prioritise horse rescues over human rescues

OK Paul, This race there were 17 horses and riders usually there is 10 to a race. They start on level ground for about 100 feet then the over the steep hill 200 feet to the Okanogan River and swim across to the arena. Some riders get tossed when they go over the hill and many get smashed up when they hit the water. Sometimes they loose a horse. There is a rescue crew in the river to save any riders or horse.
