May 2017.Pub May 2017 AINTREE NEWS Your monthly guide to what's on at Aintree Equestrian Centre ONE FOR SCOTLAND! One for Arthur wins the Randox Health Grand Naonal In this months edition:- Brightwells Sale Forthcoming Events Grand National Highlights Buck Brannaman returns to Aintree www.aintreeequestriancentre.co.uk WELCOME Hello and welcome to the first edition of The Aintree Equestrian Centre Newsletter. It has been a busy time recently with The Randox Health Grand National Festival and although the Equestrian Centre has been closed during this period, the team at Aintree have still been busy helping with the Festival. One for Arthur winning The Randox Health Grand National for Scotland was yet another wonderful story which only the Grand National can produce. Trained by a lady, ridden by a jockey who had only just come back from injury and owned by ‘The Golf Widows’ who decided to buy a horse to keep them entertained whilst their husbands are away. Another National, another name on the winner’s board and another fantastic result for everyone at Aintree. The Equestrian Centre is back open now and we have eleven show days in May and several clinics also taking place. We start May with a couple of British Showjumping shows on the 1st & 3rd, our popular Spring Spectacular Showing and Working Hunter show on the 6th & 7th and three British Dressage shows on the 13th, 14th and 31st. Our fun Dressage Championships return on the 18th, 20th & 21st which are kindly sponsored by The Saddlery, with entries closing on the Monday 8th May. This is open to anyone who has scored 58% or more in two dressage events at any venue in the past year. With lots of goodies up for grabs for the Championships, this is a show not to be missed. We have another exciting edition to May this year where we will once again be holding the Brightwells Sports Horse Sale on Saturday 27th May. With Geoff Billington also doing a demonstration before the sale, a VIP dinner and lots of nice horses for sale, this will be an evening to pop in your diary. It is free for people to come along and watch. Full details are on page 7 of this newsletter. We hope that you enjoy reading the newsletter and find it useful with information about our forthcoming shows and look forward to seeing you at Aintree soon.

11th June 2017. Buck Brannaman is renowned for being a phenomenal horseman and clinician. Buck is returning to Aintree after a very successful horsemanship clinic in 2015. Buck is considered to be one of the worlds’ best and most experienced horsemen. He is widely respected by professional and recreational horse people. He was the inspiration for Nicholas Evans’ best- selling novel ‘The Horse Whisperer’, and the subsequently successful film staring Robert Redford, Kirstin Scott Thomas and Scarlett Johansson. Bucks’ skills in the saddle, and with a rope, are matched only by his ability to teach safe and effective horsemanship to riders of all abilities and is applicable to all disciplines. George Morris, Chef d’Equipe and Olympian for the US show jumping team, says: “Buck is a horseman’s horseman, who is a world-class rider, teacher and trainer. The horse world, in general, cannot say enough about this man.” Buck has made many videos on how to teach horses groundwork, horsemanship and trailering and has books chronicling his life experiences. Spectator tickets £55.00 per day or for a 3 day ticket £150.00 Doors open at 07.45 and the clinic starts at 09.00 Buck will be doing signings on Friday and Saturday from 16.30 - 17.30 For more information or to buy tickets, please visit www.totalhorsemanship.co.uk or email: [email protected] or phone +44 (0) 7961 829900 BRIGHTWELLS SALE & GEOFF BILLINGTON DEMO Brightwells at Aintree EC for a second-year running As auctioneers, Brightwells is nationally and internationally synonymous with the world of equestrianism.

  • Erica Tom Gender and Power in Narratives of “Natural Horsemanship”
    H U M a N I M A L I A 7:1 Erica Tom Gender and Power in Narratives of “Natural Horsemanship”: The Production of “Prey-Identified M asculinity” 1. Overview. Through visual and textual analysis, this cultural studies project examines the production of what I call “prey-identified masculinity” — a discourse of masculinity where the performer identifies with prey as a means to explain his empathy and sensitivity, while remaining in a dominant subject position. Drawing on the work of Louis Althusser, Michel Foucault, and Judith Butler, I evaluate the ideologies and discourse being produced through two cultural artifacts concerning “Natural Horsemanship” practitioners Monty Roberts and Buck Brannaman — the autobiography, The Man Who Listens to Horses (1996), and the biographic documentary Buck (2010). This analysis seeks to add to the developing field of horse-human relations, specifically the scholarship on Natural Horsemanship by Lynda Birke, Keri Brandt, and Joanna Latimer. By focusing on cultural productions (rather than the practice of the discipline) this article seeks to contribute to literature on “the representation of equestrian sports in the media” of which there is, “a striking dearth of research specifically on gendered representations of equestrians in media coverage” (Adelman and Knijnik 207). 1 Positing that prey-identified masculinity offers a new identity that may provide a sense of agency to a specific population, I also consider the pitfalls of a discourse that is grounded in sexist ideology. This analysis is concerned with the social power relations of performativity, how cultural narratives structure identities, and what is at stake in the production of prey-identified masculinity.

  • Humanizing Animals: Talking About Police, Prisoners, and Horses
    Humanizing Animals: Talking About Police, Prisoners, and Horses by Erica Carol Tom A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in American Studies written under the direction of Frances Bartkowski, Ph.D. and approved by _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ _________________________ Newark, New Jersey May 2017 ©Erica Tom All Rights Reserved Humanizing Animals: Talking About Police, Prisoners, and Horses By Erica Tom Dissertation Director: Frances Bartkowski, Ph.D. Abstract Despite the horse’s central role in the conquest of America and its ongoing importance as a symbol of freedom and independence in the national imagination, innumerable horses—no longer of use—are sold at kill lots every year. However, in recent decades rescues have repurposed these horses for work in law enforce- ment and in equine therapy programs. Equine therapy programs have been gain- ing support in America; at the same time, the disproportionate arrests and incar- ceration of black men has continued to rise._ Equine prison programs produces an evocative situation: two disregarded populations—ex-race horses no longer able to race or mustangs with nowhere to go, and convicts exiled from society—are brought together to “rehabilitate” each other. The trope of the wild and dangerous black man is ever present, as current events—such as Ferguson, and Black Lives Matter—remind us. Thus this pairing the broken (ex-race horse) or untamed (mustang) non-human animal with that of the transgressive human (prisoner) that is undeniably political.
