Cable Boss Progress Report

Cable Boss has begun transitioning to galloping at Bridlewood Farm. The yearling colt has hit quite the growth spurt over the past three months and currently measures 16.1 hands, after growing 2 1/4 inches since August. Bridlewood Farm also routinely weighs their horses to keep track of weight gained and lost, and reported that Cable Boss is up 90 pounds since August and is currently tipping the scales at 1,010.

Due to this growth spurt, the Bridlewood Farm team has him galloping two days and follows those two days up with one day of jogging up the grass hill or what they call a “trail ride.” The reasoning for this training method is to protect both his mind and body as they are going through these changes. Mentally, the staff reports he is a big sweetheart, noting he has a sensitive side to him. These traits have led to his nickname of “Baby Huey” around the barn.
