On today's show, we're diving into the exciting world of Versatility Ranch, a discipline that truly embodies the spirit of the working American Quarter Horse. Versatility Ranch showcases a horse's ability to perform a variety of tasks mirroring those on a real working ranch, moving beyond typical arena work.

We highlight core classes like Ranch Riding, which emphasizes efficient and elegant movement, and Ranch Trail, which challenges horses to navigate real-world obstacles like gates and log dragging.

Cat and Ashley are joined by trainers Jenna Seal and Kristy Lee Smith to further explore this dynamic and engaging discipline.
