Description It's a revisionment of an older piece by the same title:  fav.me/d6fttyv
(You don't have to look at that one. Please don't look at that one.)

Also in line with a release of the new song Standing Still for my music bro Acouste www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkLwj_…
It's part of the full compilation album here: lycandesebeats.bandcamp.com/
Check his stuff out braddahs!

Funny story with this is I drew the sketch a long while ago and back then it was like lets see how much I can make this idea look better now and I completely forgot about it (like with every other of the billions of unfinished sketches rip). And listening to Acouste's song brought me back to the sketch and inspired me to just paint the sucker. And here it is. Thank you for pumping me up enough to finish painting a horse again

Sometimes you strive to push forward ahead of the competition. 
Other times you strive to push forward ahead of yourself. 
To push harder and faster to see what you can accomplish for you and nobody else. 
I was hoping that this piece expressed that more than the previous version. That Dash is racing against herself rather than any one opponent.

Did you do that on purpose? Commenting the same thing as the previous version but with infinite more o's? You little rascal.

Dude, this looks awesome! I'm particularly fond of the hair, you've managed to give it a wonderful amount of volume. Keep doing what you're doing!
