Historical Head to Head at Road to the Horse 2016 as Anderson Faces Dowers

Year after year, the atmosphere at Road to the Horse is electric. Fans of the prestigious World Championship of Colt Starting have witnessed the best horseman in the world enter the Road to the Horse round pen to partake in an epic and coveted test of horsemanship. Road to the Horse 2016 will be unforgettable. It’s been four years since Australian horseman and past Road to the Horse World Champion Clinton Anderson left his footprints on the dirt at Road to the Horse but he returns in 2016 to challenge NRCHA Open Futurity Champion, Nick Dowers.

“Road to the Horse is an event that I’m always proud to be involved with” states the well-known Australian horseman. “Tootie puts on a world-class show, and I’ve enjoyed working with the colts I’ve gotten over the years, educating the crowd and stepping up to the event’s challenges. I’m looking forward to throwing my hat back in the ring for the 2016 competition.”

Clinton Anderson is a clinician, horse trainer and competitor. He’s dedicated his life to helping others realize their horsemanship dreams and keeping them inspired to achieve their goals. He owns and operates Downunder Horsemanship based in Stephenville, Texas. The Downunder Horsemanship Method of horse training is based on mutual respect and understanding and gives horse owners the knowledge needed to become skilled horsemen and train their horses to be consistent and willing partners. Clinton instructs horsemanship clinics, presents Walkabout Tours across the country, produces a television show, hosts an internet TV website and is constantly creating comprehensive study kits and training tools to make learning horsemanship as accessible and easy as possible.

“We may just blow the roof off the Alltech this year” states Road to the Horse Owner and Producer Tootie Bland. “When you welcome back a past champion, horseman, equine educator and inspirational horseman like Clinton Anderson, the only guarantee is there are no guarantees. From the first competitor at Road to the Horse, to the first in education and innovation, Road to the Horse will test one of its best this year. This would not be the year to miss.”
