Christian Roberts, lanky, blond, and twenty-five-years-old,
rents out small sailboats on Sarasota Bay. His peaceful life
is shattered when he accepts a thoroughbred colt from his
estranged, dying father, an Ocala horse trainer. When
Christian promises his father that he'll race the colt,
he's plunged into the underworld of horse racing. To
navigate his way he naively hires Ed Price, a heartless
Miami trainer. And when his colt shows potential -- a
surprising resemblance to Secretariat -- a dubious wealthy
sheik wants to buy him, but Christian vows to keep his
promise to his father. With a sizable debt still owed on the
horse, Christian is forced to take out a loan, his only
recourse, Vince, a New York mobster. If the money is not
repaid on time, Christian's life and that of Allie, his
colt's trainer, are threatened. To add to his rollercoaster
of troubles, he faces fraud charges since his father
illegally registered the colt, and he is being stalked by a
psychotic ex-girlfriend.
