Once we found where we needed to be and which stall was Hercules’ we pulled into the Watt Arena stall area and unloaded and got things situated. I went ahead and gave Hercules a bath to help cool him down a bit and then Janet clipped his face to help make it prettier.


Each trainer was allowed to sign up for three 20 minute sessions in the big arena per day to help the horses get used to the obstacles and the arena. I was very impressed with Hercules willingness to go wherever I asked him to go and to check out all the new things. He even loaded in the trailer very well, which surprised me after having such a long trip here.




It is so much hotter here than it has been at home and so I send Janet and Vicky to the store to get a fan so that we can try and keep Hercules a little more comfortable. He made the trip well but did loose a little weight. While Janet and Vicky were shopping they decided to decorate Hercules stall as well. It sure did bring a lot of attention. I met the other trainers that were around me and got to speak with them a little. They are all very excited to be here as am I.
