Just wait until you see a good chance and run for it. He’s a little more vicious now and will try to cut you off as soon as you get close. He’ll challenge you to a second race, this time offering you the horse. Either get ahead of him first and try to stay ahead of him by using your carrots slowly and blocking him, or wait until you’re near the end and speed past him by continually using carrots. Use A to speed up, but don’t use all of your carrots until the end. Ingo cheats and starts a second early, but he tends to take the corners pretty wide, giving a chance to slip ahead. After completing the Forest Temple, you will have the opportunity to become a child again and can complete any incomplete tasks. If you don’t have it, just skip this part of the guide and return later. If you didn’t learn Epona’s song earlier, you learn it from Malon as a child. Don’t take the horse he offers you, but instead play Epona’s Song to make the best horse come to you. Fork over the goods and you’ll appear inside the corral. Anyway, he has a little pony ride you can partake in for 10 Rupees. Run up to the corral in the center of the area and speak with Ingo to hear him gripe about how awesome he is. Well, Talon (the fat sleeping guy) got kicked out and Ingo (the dirty worker in the stables) is now the owner of the ranch! You can find Malon in the stables, clutching a broom and afraid to leave the ranch out of fear that Ingo will mistreat the horses. To continue onward with the main quest, just to section 7.2. NOTE: This portion is actually optional as you don’t need Epona to complete your quest. Head for Lon Lon Ranch in the center of the field. Out in Hyrule Field, it’s actually more calm, since there are no longer any Stalchildren or PeaHats.
