A horse minutes away from drowning in quicksand has been saved in a dramatic rescue.
Nicole Graham and her daughter, Paris, were riding along a beach in Melbourne, Australia when their horses got stuck in the muddy sands.
The woman managed to dig her daughter's horse free but her horse, Astro, was stuck.
Nicole stayed by Astro's side for three hours until rescuers pulled him from the sands with ropes and a big tractor.
She said: "It was heartbreaking to see my horse struggling. He is so well trained, he knew I would get him out so he didn't fight."
Afterwards Astro was treated to bread and jam and a massage to help him recover.
