Cheyenne Wimberley discussses barrel racing tips on how to get yourself in position and your horse in position at the third barrel in barrel racing. The first barrel may be the money barrel, and people stress about their second barrel extensively, but multiple-time NFR qualifier Wimberley thinks that more can be done at the third.
“This is the barrel where everybody [sometimes] forgets how to ride. We’re all guilty of it—we’ve already worked two barrels and you’re almost done. A lot of horses and people and horses lose their position here.”
