Members of the legendary Franco family of Charro champions chase a wild mare around the arena during a practice session in the Jalisco Highlands town of Capilla de Guadalupe, Mexico. The roping event is called Manganas a Caballo or Roping on Horseback and involves a charro on horse roping a wild mare by its front legs to cause it to fall and roll once.
