Emerald Downs - But thats WHO WE ARE [00:48]
Well, what can I say. I simply adore this video. Ive been meaning to construct a tribute for my beloved Emerald Downs for a while now, and here it is. I think it accurately depicts our struggle in a small racing community, but also our strength and perseverance in the grand sport of kings. I hope you guys enjoy. The clips are from Emerald Downs, though I do not own them, nor do I own the song. I just edited it :) Thanks for watching!

The Courage of Eight Belles [07:01]
A horse woman and riding trainer, 16-year old Maria caught the drama and impact of Eight Belles' last ride in 2008. The lessons we can learn are dramatized by human racers after her reading of the poem, "What She Taught Me." Heroes leave a story to tell. Eight Belles truly gave all she had and won.
