Hi Richard really enjoying your videos and gaining some new techniques. My wife just brought home a 4 year old Off Track Thoroughbred. I have got her in round pen a couple of times now, but she pays absolutely no attention to the flag. Am I wrong with starting her at zero as if she was a colt? Should I move on to on-line training? Any tips on working an OTB.

John Britton I would definitely recommend starting her over with the ES20. Keep in mind that it could take a while so don't get frustrated with her. Most of the race horses don't have much of a foundation even though they might be gentle. Stay persistent with the flag and remember to back off whe she gives you a little attention. try to start with a glance or an ear flick to begin with and build from there. Keep s updated.🙂
