the daughter was happy to be riding the white horse.  but somebody later suggested it may not be safe, so she was paired with a much more docile horse.

I've never really liked horses.  they're much larger and smarter than I am.  but the horse above, blue...  we were quick friends.  very gentle and seemed to enjoy human contact.  his eyes followed my every move.  I trusted him with my daughter.
