Bordeaux and the HERO programme - Part 4

In a few short weeks Bordeaux has come a long way.

Before he arrived at Chanelle Dickie's Selwyn Equestrian Centre he'd never been ridden, now he's not only getting used to life under saddle but he's started jumping small fences, and a lot more besides.

After winning 11 races on the track the 10-year-old trotter is part of Harness Racing New Zealand’s HERO programme. (HERO stands for Harness Education and Rehoming Opportunities).

This is the fourth in a series of videos about Bordeaux, and gauges his progress with Dickie before he gets re-homed.
