Young Luis Alfonso Franco, from the legendary Franco family of Charro champions performs a roping display before roping a wild horse during a practice session in the Jalisco Highlands town of Capilla de Guadalupe, Mexico. The roping event is called Manganas a Pie or Roping on Foot and involves a charro on foot roping a wild mare by its front legs to cause it to fall and roll once. The wild mare is chased around the ring by three mounted charros.
