Description
Barrel Racing is a rodeo event in which a horse and rider attempt to complete a clover-leaf configuration around set barrels in the greatest time.
Despite the fact that both boys and girls compete at the youth level and men compete in some amateur venues, in collegiate and professional ranks, it is primarily a rodeo event for women.
It combines the horse's athletic ability and the horsemanship skills of a rider in order to carefully and successfully maneuver a horse through a clover leaf pattern around three barrels (typically three fifty-five gallon metal or plastic drums) placed in a triangle in the center of an arena.
In timed rodeo events, the objective is to make a run as fast as possible, while the time is being clocked either by an electronic eye, (a device using a laser system to record times), or by an arena attendant or judge who manually takes the time using the eye and a flag to let a clocker know when to hit the timer stop though this last method is more commonly observed in local and non-professional events.

Wonderful work, Gary. I love how the horse is looking at you with her right eye and looking at the turn she is making with the left.
