Nothing like a horse running on his natural surface. . .

I'm surprised you're in favor of him running still.

That horse is part of the family...there is no reason not to run him if he's healthy. So happy for all of them.

Obviously I have no problem with him running. . . Probably shouldn't have mentioned it since this comes up every time he runs. Just messing w/ Riot.
