This episode of On The Rail Podcast, we get to see through the reins of Amber Duckett, an Idaho horse trainer and owner, who shares her journey from a young 4-H member to a professional trainer and owner of a successful stallion, One And Only Asset ('Marshall').
Amber's story highlights her DIY approach, the evolution of her career, and the special bond she has with Marshall, whose 'marshmallows' carry on his legacy.
In addition, we explore the recent regulatory changes by the American Paint Horse Association (APHA) and their impact on the horse community, covering the perspectives of stallion owners and enthusiasts. Discussions include the challenges and opportunities these changes present, the importance of community support, and an optimistic outlook for the future of horse competition and breeding.
