The Road to the Horse is an annual colt-starting competition held at the Alltech Arena in the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky.^[1] Three trainers are invited to choose a colt from a remuda of untouched three-year old quarter horses provided by the American Quarter Horse Association. They then have a specified amount of time over three days to gently get a saddle and tack on the colt and ride it. Road to the Horse is owned and produced by Tootie Bland.^[2][3] In the past the competition has been held at Cowtown Coliseum in Fort Worth, Texas^[4] and Tennessee Miller Coliseum in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.^[5]
