SIX-HORSE HITCH A six-horse hitch is made up of three horse teams: the wheel team in the back, the swing in the middle and the lead team at the front. Owners and drivers strive to put together teams that are similar in breed and colour, size, stride and head carriage (how the horse holds their head). These attributes help a team work together in unison.

  • Harvard Polo Asia by Abigail Trafford
    Horsing Around IN THE HIGHWAYS AND BYWAYS OF POLO IN ASIA We all meet up during the six-hour stopover in the Beijing Airport. The invitation comes from the Genghis Khan Polo Club to play in Mongolia and then to head back to China for a university tournament at the Metropolitan Polo Club in Tianjin. Say, what? Yes, polo! Both countries are resurrecting the ancient sport—a tale of two cultures—and the Harvard players are to be emissaries to help generate a new ballgame in Asia. In a cavernous airport restaurant, I survey the Harvard Polo Team: Jane is captain of the women’s team; Shawn, captain of the men’s team; George, the quiet one, is a physicist; Danielle, a senior is a German major; Sarah, a biology major; Aemilia writes for the Harvard Crimson. Marina, a mathematician, will join us later. Neil and Johann are incoming freshmen; Merrall, still in high school, is a protégé of the actor Tommy Lee Jones—the godfather of Harvard polo. And where are the grownups? Moon Lai, a friend of Neil’s parents, is the photographer from Minnesota. Crocker Snow, Harvard alum and head of the Edward R. Murrow Center at Tufts, is tour director and coach. I am along as cheer leader and chronicler. We stagger onto the late-night plane to Ulan Bator (UB), the capital of Mongolia, pile into a van and drive into the darkness—always in the constant traffic of trucks. Our first camp of log cabins is near an official site of Naadam—Mongolia’s traditional summer festival of horse racing, wrestling and archery.

  • Horse Race Or Steeplechase a Board Game That People of All Ages Have
    Horse Race or Steeplechase A board game that people of all ages have enjoyed for many years is Steeplechase or “Horse Race.” The name Steeplechase came from the real horse races run in Europe where the cross-country race course went over many natural and man- made obstacles, such as fences, stone walls, and water-filled ditches. The rider’s goal at the end of the race was near a church with a steeple that could be seen from miles away. Game boards for Steeplechase can be found in European museums. The Old Steeplechase Game Board Walter Kuse Had as a Child Walter Kuse had a printed horse race game board when he was a small boy, but that game was worn out and broken by younger children. Walter remembered the fun he had with the game as a child and also the exciting horse races that were held then at the Taylor County Fair. New Horse Race Game Board Walter Kuse painted this game board in the 1930’s. He painted it on the back of recycled advertising cardboard for his daughter Hildegard. The family and visitors had fun playing it and remembering stories about horses they had known. Game Rules Use buttons or other markers. Throw a die to see how many spaces to move. Toss the die to tell who will go first. The person with the lowest number begins. Take turns in a clockwise direction. Follow the directions if any are written on the space where you land. If you stop on a rail fence or a stone fence, you must toss a six to get off.

  • The History of International Equestrian Sports
    “... and Allah took a handful of Southerly wind... and created the horse” The history of international equestrian sports Susanna Hedenborg Department of Sport Sciences, Malmö University Published on the Internet, www.idrottsforum.org/hedenborg140613, (ISSN 1652–7224), 2014-06-13 Copyright © Susanna Hedenborg 2014. All rights reserved. Except for the quotation of short passages for the purposes of criticism and review, no part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted, in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior permission of the author. The aim of this paper is to chart the relationship between men, women and horses with focus on equestrian sports. The degree of internationality of these sports, as well as the question of whether a sport can be seen as international if only men or women participate, are discussed. Furthermore, the diffusion of equestrian sports are presented; in short, equestrian activities spread interna- tionally in different directions up until the late 19th century. Since then Olympic Equestrian events (dressage, show jumping and eventing) have been diffused from Europe. Even though men and women are allowed to compete against each other in the equestrian events, the number of men and women varies widely, irrespective of country, and until this imbalance is redressed, equestrian sports cannot be seen as truly international. SUSANNA HEDENBORG iis professor of sport studies at Malmö University, Sweden. Her research focuses on sport history as well as on issues of gender and age. Currently she is working with the international history of equestrian sports, addressing the interchangeable influences of gender, age and nationality.

    CALIFORNIA AUTHORITY OF RACING FAIRS HORSE RACING AND CALIFORNIA FAIRS BACKGROUND • PLANNING • UPDATES PRESENTED AT THE 2009 WFA CONVENTION PREPARED BY CALIFORNIA AUTHORITY OF RACING FAIRS CHRISTOPHER KORBY, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR HORSE RACING AND FAIRS HISTORY AND FINANCIAL IMPACT •The oldest racetrack in America, located at the Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton, was built in 1858. • Pari‐mutuel wagering on horse races was officially legalized in 1933 with the intended purpose of “encouragement of agriculture and breeding of horses.” •In California, 82,200 horses are involved in racing in some context and more than 48,000 Californians are employed as a result of horse racing. Racing generates a $2.46 billion dollar effect on California’s gross domestic product. •License fees paid by California’s horse racing industry allow the Fairs in this state to be self‐supporting without local and state taxpayers subsidies. FAIRS, HORSE RACING AND AGRICULTURE There is a long history of political alliances between Fairs and Horse Racing: •Fairs and horse racing share common roots in agriculture. • Breeding, training and care of horses are agricultural activities, representing a significant component of California’s agricultural economy. • Fairs, breeders and horse owners, coming together in the context of their shared connection to agriculture, can work for their interest as part of California’s powerful agricultural sector. •CARF has begun working with the State Board of Food and Agriculture to elevate the awareness of equine husbandry as an agricultural activity. HORSE RACING AND FAIR REVENUES •Horse racing is the biggest single business is the California Fair industry. • Pari‐mutuel wagering from the Fair Satellite Network generates approximately $100 million annually to a spectrum of beneficiaries.
