Meet my horse, Diesel!

Diesel is my 16 yo thoroughbred gelding. His JC name is Lord Canela. He was born 03/31/2009 and he had 17 starts. I’ve had him for 10 years now. He’s trick trained and we compete in endurance riding. His favorite human food is Cheetos. #ottb #thoroughbred #meetmyhorse #gelding
