This is very cute (essential to watch with sound)
***A MUST WATCH*** watch till the end, it's the best part! TURN SOUND UPYesterday the 3 yearlings had a long hard day at the yearling show, one of the colts must have been exhausted after his show horse adventures yesterday! It is hilarious! -Please note nothing is wrong with him he does this all the time, and he got up when he realized we were watching!
