Hint this horse was a terror that couldn't be handled by two trainers, yet turned to a pussy-cat under this driver.

mYs003 HORSE and driver?

Nimble Hanover (Alma Sheppard)
Sports Illustrated article (http://www.google.com/url?q=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1074858/index.htm&sa=U&ei=Rw-aT4iBBorqgQfIp8z7Dg&ved=0CBEQFjAA&usg=AFQjCNFFNLiwEcwLa1wxHH7vzdhf975waw)

Many people don't give Alma Sheppard enough due credit. Mistakenly believing that she just jumped on Dean Hanover as set a record ("anybody can do that").
Alma's hard work and improving skills over an extended period, were what made Henry Thomas (as well as the Sheppard Family) so proud and impressed for the young lady.
