Three-time World Champion Heeler Wesley Thorp shares a detailed, no-frills session bringing a 10-year-old mare back into form after time off. This video shows how he builds a horse’s confidence, balance, and timing from the back end—focusing on collection through the corner, holding position, and setting up for multiple good throws instead of just one.
Thorp explains how to keep a horse framed, soft in the bridle, and responsive through the corner—all while scoring on a loose rein to promote relaxation and timing out of the box. It’s a lesson in patience, feel, and rope placement on your terms, not your horse’s.

If you're seasoning a heel horse, dealing with one that's heavy or fresh, or working on keeping position longer down the arena, this is the kind of solution-driven training content that sticks.
