\u201cIt\u2019s just pretty crazy,\u201d said Becky who was on Britain\u2019s medal-winning teams at the Paris Olympics in 2024 and the European Championships last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean, it was just insane to be part of such a cool competition. The crowd in there were absolutely something else.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m wondering if they\u2019re available for hire. We\u2019re going to take them everywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

Christian Simonson, who is based in Wellington, Florida, commented: \u201cAt the end of my test, looking up and seeing this wall of people standing up, applauding Rocky, and it was super special. It\u2019s something I\u2019ll never forget.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis whole week has been a childhood dream come true, and unbelievably surreal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Being in cowboy country, he said, \u201cit\u2019s really special to see horse culture, whether it\u2019s dressage or jumping, or in this case, cutting and reining.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think so many people that just have an inherent love of horses and to see that not only in competition, but all around the city and celebrated with art and competitions\u2026 I think it\u2019s really special to see and as a fellow horse lover it\u2019s quite cool to be a part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The music for Indian Rock was to highlight his nickname of \u201cRocky,\u201d he said, was developed on American classics based on the Rocky movies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just really wanted the music also to show how powerful he is of a horse. So I also had a really fun time listening to my music.\u201d<\/p>\n
