Robert Redford's The Horse Whisperer may be gathering dust on your DVD shelf, but Buck Brannaman – the man who inspired the 1998 film and Nicholas Evans' novel by the same name – deserves a moment of your time at this weekend's Dublin Horse Show.
A true American cowboy, Brannaman’s grace in the saddle and his understanding of man’s favourite four-legged friend is astonishing.
Even if you’ve never set foot in a stable, Brannaman’s personal history is an inspiring tale. Brannaman and former US International show jumper Melanie Smith Taylor will host twice daily clinics on Natural Horsemanship. Watch them at the Simmonscourt Arena Saturday and Sunday
