Gail Ruffu was once a respected racehorse trainer known for her unconventional training methods. Then she became part owner of the Thoroughbred called Urgent Envoy, and everything changed. Her co-owners pushed her to speed up Urgent Envoy's training and eventually made her race him too early.

For a graphic novel about stealing a horse, the horses aren't all that glorious looking. Thats my only criticism of the book. The book itself does a fantastic work of criticizing the legal system and the racing industry. We are cheering for the underdog fighting for the benefit of the animal, but it seems like the world truly does not give them the chance to become the black horse to win...
