Day in the Life of a Reining Horse Trainer | Derby Prep & Run For A Million
Spend a full day inside the barn of NRHA Million Dollar Rider Luca Fappani — from schooling his Derby horse on spins to bringing along young reining prospects and sharing his plans for the Run For A Million. In this video, Luca works through his full training day — riding Abe on spins and schooling him in the practice show pen, desensitizing Cowboy (3YO) with a flag and building his stops, starting a 2-year-old by Spooks Gotta Whiz on turning and his first sliders, and bringing along a new mare by Gonna Trash Ya on focus and loping. He also shares his upcoming show plans including the NRHA Derby, Woodside California, the Run For A Million, and Jay Z's upcoming debut — plus a practical walkthrough of the trailer modifications he uses to help prevent shipping fever on long hauls. 📚 Learn from Luca directly — join his online training platform: lucafappani.com/subscription 🐴 Luca Fappani is an NRHA Million Dollar Rider and one of the top reining horse trainers in the world. 📍 Scottsdale, Arizona 🔔 Subscribe for weekly videos from inside a professional reining training program. 📲 Follow Luca: Instagram: @lucafappanireining Facebook: Luca Fappani Performance Horses Website: lucafappani.com ───────────────────────────── ⏱️ CHAPTERS ───────────────────────────── 00:00 — Intro | Day in the Life of a Reining Horse Trainer 1:06 — Riding Abe | Working on Spins Before the Derby 10:41 — Schooling Abe | Practice Show Pen & Rundown Work 17:54 — Cowboy (3YO) | Flag Desensitizing & Stop Training 26:27 — 2YO by Spooks Gotta Whiz | First Sliders & Turning 35:20 — New Mare by Gonna Trash Ya | Focus & Loping Work 44:17 — Show Plans | Derby, Woodside, Run For A Million & Jay Z's Debut 46:57 — Trailer Mods to Prevent Shipping Fever in Horses ───────────────────────────── #reining #reininghorses #horsetraining #NRHA #lucafappani #derbyprep #runforamillion #horsetrainer #dayinthelife #spooksgottawhiz #gunnatrashya #NRHAMillionDollarRider #reininghorse #2yearold #shippingfever
