BR 2-02: A Horse Named Seabiscuit

Something was wrong with Seabiscuit.(p. 5)

 This story is not a fiction. Seabiscuit is a horse, whose grandfather was a great racehorse. He should have been a champion too, but he was a big disappointment. His style was not for racehorses. In over 35 races, he had never won. However, after one horse trainer, Tom Smith trained Seabiscuit, an eye-opener happened in his first big race. Although nobody except for Tom Smith thought Seabiscuit could win, he did win. That day was only the beginning.  If you want to know more about his success, please read this book!

I don't know about horse and horse races, but after reading this book, I was so impressed. It is true that Seabiscuit was great, but his trainer, Tom Smith was also great. Without Tom, Seabiscuit would never have won. I wish I could watch Seabiscuit gallop in a race...
