Barrel Racing is a competition in rodeo. The cowgirls ride quickly around the barrels, and the one with the least time win. In a race, every time a horse runs in front of a barrel, it must brake sharply, slows down around the barrel, and then speeds up to the next barrel. This is similar to Formula One racing. The whole race is full of adventure and excitement. especially around the turns.
