But -- downforce. Actually -- and to me defendants often underestimated with with the barrel -- loses to -- the speed that they're traveling and the corners that they make the centrifugal force. I think barrel racers often. Aren't given the credit they deserve as far as being athletic. I mean you really have to have great balance great control and in the end I'm great equilibrium to be able to master of this this. This this pattern it and it's time that will actually end up bringing you attribute to -- Houston so. I mean when you watch is so simple to watch because it's a horse race. But don't underestimate the talent of the Ryder and the role that plays because you could take these sources than him and talk about these ladies. And you can put somebody else on them. That is even grown up being barrel it's been a -- ways from competing in the junior high and high school level. And that would -- him near the success these are high and athletes -- -- these horses and because of that I gotta go with these three ladies.

The little man that you've won Houston I'm in the past and so after what's -- you -- aware of this when he's got the capability to learn a variety so. I don't know shall bring sting -- before she had in that Denver beau mills. But to me the most compelling story in all of professional sports paddy and I mean I don't care you talk boxing and talking golf you can talk hockey. Soccer doesn't matter. One of the the most compelling stories in all of sports is Mary walker if people knew her life story. They just she'd have the biggest fan base of anybody. So I'm dying horse falling breaking hip I mean and then to go to Las Vegas and win a thousand dollars a second. Hurt her total combined time on Tim runs was a 143 section 147000. Dollars a brand new truck. Okay. Her -- -- on Reagan should believes was an Angel on her shoulder but that course percolate a lot today was voted horse of the year.
