Some spot news shooting in High River yesterday . . . .
Death of a horse . . . . . the moment of disaster at the High River chuckwagons last night as the left lead horse of the Darcy Flad outfit, near the rail, dies of a heart attack as the finish line nears, going down and taking the horse behind with it. Three horses walked away unhurt. Flad is pulling back on the reigns and his competitor notices the change with the left rear horse lifting its head before piling into the dirt.
On a lighter note, rodeo queens and princesses from Okotoks and Airdrie gallop by as they herd a calf to a corral.
