THE BTSC RIDERS
Rider's Prayer.

-By Commander Hugh Falcon-Steward
There are the laws of the horseman
Observe them whenever you can
The horse is the noblest of creatures
The servant and good friend of man
The turn out of horse and of rider
Must never incline to be slack
Let smartness and pride be the motto
No prize will be won with poor tack
Don't stint your good horse in his feeding
Let his food er all the best,
Do him well, and you'll never regret it,
he'll not frail when it comes to the test
Let your riding be full of enjoyment
And remember this sensible rule
Don't return from you ride in a hurry
But bring in your horse nice and cool
if when jumping you have a refusal
Take heed ere you go for your stick;
The fault often lies with the rider
Let jugement be sound and not quick
Whenever you meet provocation
Your temper must never be lost
Your horse may well not understand you
If you fail you will sure count the cost.
If you're stood down the line in the showring
Let resentment not show in your face
The judges decision is final
Accept the result with good grace.
When a long day you're spent in the saddle
And your horse has performed at his best
See everything right in the stable
Ere you seek your own comfort and rest
Now these are the laws of the horseman
Obey as a matter of course
And show you're a sensible rider
With respect and true love of your horse.
