Indian Relay
|
Indian Relay follows multiple teams as they compete throughout the Indian Relay season. Many of the teams consist of families with Indian Relay roots stretching back generations. Bragging rights and money are at stake for the teams that compete in the Indian Relay circuit. Indian Relay is a style of bareback horse racing involving four to eight teams racing head-to-head. Each team is made up of four people and three horses. One person is the rider, another person, known as the mugger, catches the horse when the rider jumps off, and the other two people handle the horses. During the race, riders make three laps around the typically half-mile track, changing to a new horse at the beginning of each lap. In as few movements as possible after hitting the ground, the rider then vaults onto another horse and speeds off for another lap. The fastest team to complete all three laps and exchanges is the winner. For viewers: Please contact your local public television station to find out when they will be scheduling this program.
