Morton, IL – October 14, 2014 – When Cathy Roe took her elderly mother to watch Ray Ainsworth, she planned to only stay for one day of the multi-day clinic, but by the end of the day at the Blain’s Farm and Fleet Grand Opening, Roe knew she would be coming back for more.
“I’ve seen horse trainers before and whatever they want to call themselves – horse teachers, horse whisperers. Most of them don’t overly impress me,” Roe said. “I watch what they do. That’s fine and neat, but maybe it’s not something I would do or doesn’t apply to my situation or me. When I first watched Ray, he impressed me. When I first got there the first day I was hooked. I came back Friday and Saturday.”

Morton, IL – October 7, 2014 – Ray Ainsworth was the star attraction at Blain’s Farm and Fleet Grand Opening in Morton, Illinois. The retail store management has invited Ainsworth back again and again for clinics at their grand openings because of his astounding gift for helping owners and riders start their horses the right way and work through and cure behavioral issues.
He was first introduced to the retailer 10 years ago by Don Preston, a regional sales manager for Behlen Manufacturing, a $65 million dollar farm and horse equipment manufacturer sponsoring a clinic at a Blain’s event.

Alamo, TN – Sept. 27, 2014 – Acclaimed horseman Ray Ainsworth spends countless weekends working and teaching horses, but this weekend there is something extra special about the work Ainsworth will be doing. For every horse that Ainsworth works with now through Sunday, Sept. 28, a $25 donation will be made to the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Making that possible is the Buck Creek St. Jude Trail Ride in Alamo, Tennessee. Over the past 15 years, the charity trail ride has raised more than $347,000 for St. Jude, and when Ainsworth was approached about the opportunity to get involved he jumped at the chance.

Hurricane Mills, TN – Sept. 13, 2014 – Since he was very young, Ray Ainsworth has been studying the language of horses. His ability to communicate with troubled or difficult horses through natural horsemanship has transformed countless horses, and most recently, it took him on the road to Loretta Lynn Ranch in Hurricane Mills, TN.
While at the ranch, Ainsworth hosted a trail ride specifically for troubled horses and their owners, seeking advice from ‘the man horses talk to’ – a tagline adopted thanks to Ainsworth’s ability to listen to horses and teach owners and riders to communicate with them more effectively.
