Kylee Lukefahr and Jade freestyle routine

In the third part of the series on Kylee Lukefahr, 15, and Jade the mustang, they complete their final entry for the Extreme Mustang Makeover competition at Evans Equestrians in Perryville. Lukefahr spent about 100 days training a two year-old wild mustang she named Jade that had no training and little exposure to humans before they met. The two must complete three portions of the virtual competition. The final part is their freestyle routine, which was completely created by Lukefahr with the help of her mother, Misty Abbott.
