He nodded. "Oh yes. I learned to take the horses through warm ups, though
I'm much to tall and big to be a jockey. I raised a few actually. My latest
is Star, but I have to leave her behind when I came here." He said it
sadly, almost wistfully. "She's to gentle to race, but she makes a good
riding mare and I'm sure soon my father will option to breed her."
A decision he would have no part in, of course, making his brow darken. He
would probably go home and Star would be fat with a foal. Only his presence
had kept the mare from being bred, and he would lose his riding companion
when she was.
