Calgary rancher John Scott has been wrangling horses for film and TV producers for over 40 years. The Calgary Stampede veteran is currently head wrangler on CBC’s Heartland and was responsible for finding and training the emaciated horses used on CTV’s The Horses of McBride (premiering Sunday at 7 p.m. ET on CTV). In the above clip, shot on location last March in Turner Valley, Alta., Scott talks about all the actors he’s taught to sit tall in the saddle, including Brad Pitt, Jackie Chan and Dustin Hoffman.
