Horses are chosen by hat-draw for each Extreme Mustang Makeover Participant. When Trainers arrive at the holding facility, they do not know the age or sex of their horse until they receive their draw.

When trainers get their assigned horse, it is loaded into the trailer for the trip home. Cindy's draw was a 3 year old grey gelding, captured from the BLM Herd Management Area (HMA) near Ely, Nevada on September 25th, 2010.
