Title: "screens off"
Post by: joekay on May 12, 2015, 06:08:20 PM

One the horses at Bel. this past Sat. was announced as having \"screens off\".  Anybody know what that term means; it\'s the first time I\'ve ever heard it.

Unruly pulling head case horses are sometimes calmed by screens, real ones, placed over each eye.Not a good piece of equipment as are run outs etc.Tougher job for jocks riding/controlling these types.
