Zebras, Ostriches to Race at Fair Grounds Jan. 12 [01:02]
Here's a sneak peak at the athletes set to put on a show at the nation's third-oldest race track on Saturday night.

1987 Strub Stakes [01:09]
Carl Grinstead, one of the owners of Snow Chief, thought he had won. Trainer Mel Stute, who was standing in an aisle in the box-seat area, said he had a perfect position in line with the wire and thought Snow Chief had lost. Eddie Delahoussaye was riding Ferdinand, the horse who charged to the finish line almost stride for stride with Snow Chief. Unlike Grinstead and Stute, Delahoussaye wasn't wearing glasses, and his view was much closer. But Delahoussaye couldn't be sure who had won. That's how close the 40th running of the Charles H. Strub Stakes was on Sunday at Santa Anita, with 58806 fans just as unsure of the outcome as the principals. Finally, the photo-finish camera showed that Snow Chief had beaten Ferdinand by the smallest of noses, and Charlie Whittingham, the trainer of the runner-up, shoved his hands in his pockets, looked at the ground and walked around just outside the winner's circle. "Just one more jump," Whittingham said wistfully. Whittingham has won the Strub twice, but in three of the last four years he's found himself saying the same thing. In 1985, it was Precisionist over Whittingham's Greinton, by a nose just as short as on Sunday; in 1984, Desert Wine got to the wire a neck in front of Load the Cannons, another runner from Whittingham's barn. Stute should have been the last observer to doubt that Snow Chief had won, because all week long he had convinced himself that his colt was going to dominate the $516750 race. Snow Chief, a victim of a bone ...

Little Talks [Clinic with Portia] [04:21]
So, this was supposed to be uploaded on New Years Day... But, whatever. This is Portia: 16.2 (or 16.3, dunno) Bay Mare OTTB (Off Track Thoroughbred) This are from a clinic with Angelo Telatin at Thunderhead/Rutherford Balanced Equestrian. Portia and I learned SO much and we're getting better every day :D The first jump in the beginning is 2', then 2'6, and then 3' is the highest. Portia is not an easy horse to ride sometimes but she tries so hard and I love her! Yes, I was jumping with my eyes closed, and this is the first time I've EVER jumped 3', the highest I'd jumped her before this was 2'3. **I do not own the song!!** I do, however own all the clips but feel free to use them as long as you send me the link when you're done :) Comment, Rate, Subscribe! But please no crit, I do have a trainer.... ENJOY! :D
