[MAN] WITH ALL DUE RESPECT TO HENRY, THE DAY OF THE FAMILY FARM IS OVER.
RAINTREE NEEDS ME, JEAN. YOU NEED NEW TECHNOLOGY,
YOU NEED NEW BLOODLINES-- [WOMAN SIGHS]
AND YOU NEED A FRESH START AFTER PETE.
HAVE YOU HEARD FROM HIM LATELY? HE SENT A NOTE TO THE BOYS
ON THE BACK OF A NAPKIN FROM AN ATLANTIC CITY SPORTS BAR.
[MAN] LET ME BE THE WHITE KNIGHT HERE.
TOGETHER WE COULD MAKE RAINTREE THE TOP STABLE IN THE STATE.
SHH! [JEAN] RAINTREE'S BEEN IN THE FAMILY A LONG TIME, KEN.
THEN KEEP IT IN THE FAMILY.
THROW OUT THE DUE DILIGENCE, HANG ALL THE LAWYERS AND MARRY ME.
I'M TAKING THE BUG TO THE DUNES.
I'M GOING WITH MATT. NO, YOU'RE NOT.
ARE THE STALLS BEDDED DOWN? LATER.
OH, DUNES LATER. BUT I JUST--
THANK YOU.
YOU KNOW, JUNIOR WILL BE OVER LATER. YOU CAN PROBABLY TALK HIM INTO HELPING YOU.
TODD. MINTS.
I DON'T WANT YOU GOING WITH YOUR BROTHER ON THAT THING. I'LL BE FINE, MOM.
HE'S NOT GONNA LET YOU MAKE A MAMA'S BOY OUT OF HIM. NOT THAT ONE.
WHY DO YOU THINK HE GETS INTO ALL THOSE FIGHTS AT SCHOOL?
BECAUSE HE'S TOO MUCH LIKE HIS GRANDFATHER.
BECAUSE HE'S TRYING TO TELL YOU THAT HE'S NOT SCARED.
HENRY'S GOT A POINT. I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP.
SO, WHAT'S FOR LUNCH?
YOUR MOM BUSY? SHE'S WITH MR. DAVIS. HE WANTS HER TO MARRY HIM.
WOULD YOU-- [ARGUING] I'LL COME BACK LATER, OKAY?
HEY, PABLO. YOU LOOKING FOR ME?
NOTHING THAT CAN'T WAIT. NO, IT'S OKAY.
THERE'S, UH, SOMEONE I'D LIKE TO HIRE TO REPLACE MIGUEL.
WE'VE BEEN SHORTHANDED SINCE HE LEFT.
YOU DON'T NEED MY PERMISSION TO HIRE A NEW HAND.
SHE'S ONE OF THE GIRLS FROM CAMP LAGRANGE I WORK WITH. THE PRISON CAMP?
YOU REALLY WANT TO TAKE A CHANCE ON SOMEONE FROM A PLACE LIKE THAT?
I WAS IN A PLACE LIKE THAT WHEN I WAS 17.
SOMEONE TOOK A CHANCE ON ME.
WOULD YOU-- THANKS. SURE.
[DAVIS] SEE YOU LATER. [JEAN] OKAY.
SHE HAS A COURT HEARING THIS WEEK.
IT WOULD HELP HER RELEASE CHANCES IF SHE HAD A JOB.
AND SHE'S REALLY GOOD WITH HORSES.
I CAN MAKE HER A GOOD EXERCISE RIDER.
WHAT DID SHE DO BEFORE SHE--
SHE STOLE A CAR IN OAKLAND WITH SOME KIDS AND RESISTED ARREST.
[SIGHS] PABLO, WITH EVERYTHING ELSE WE'VE GOT GOING ON--
IT WAS 16 MONTHS AGO.
SHE'S GROWN UP A LOT. TURNED 18, FINISHED HIGH SCHOOL.
THAT'S A BIG RESPONSIBILITY YOU'RE ASKING ME--
SHE'LL BE MY RESPONSIBILITY.
SHE WAS GIVING SOME OF THE NEW GIRLS A HARD TIME.
NOT A VERY SMART IDEA, GETTING INTO A FIGHT A WEEK BEFORE A RELEASE HEARING.
MISS FURILLO DOESN'T HAVE A REGULAR PROBLEM WITH FIGHTING, YOUR HONOR.
ARE THE PARENTS PRESENT IN THE COURTROOM?
ARE YOU IN CONTACT WITH YOUR PARENTS?
MY MOM WRITES ONCE A MONTH 'CAUSE THE JUDGE SAID SHE HAD TO, AND...
I NEVER KNEW MY DAD 'CAUSE HE MOVED OUT BEFORE I WAS BORN.
YOUR MOTHER'S RECORD OF DRUG-RELATED ARRESTS IS OF CONCERN TO THE COURT.
HAVE YOU DISCUSSED YOUR PLANS WITH HER? NO, MA'AM.
DO YOU HAVE PLANS? I-- I JUST WANT TO GO HOME AND START OVER.
I HAVE A LETTER HERE FROM A VOLUNTEER TRAINER,
A MR. PABLO BETART, WHICH SAYS THAT
YOU'VE ACQUIRED SKILLS WITH HORSES WHILE AT CAMP.
YES, MA'AM. I LIKE HORSES.
MR. BETART SAYS THAT HE IS PREPARED TO OFFER YOU A JOB
PLUS ROOM AND BOARD AT THE RAINTREE THOROUGHBRED FARM.
THE COURT WOULD LOOK FAVORABLY UPON THIS IDEA, MISS FURILLO,
IF IT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD ONE TO YOU.
NOTHING PERSONAL, FURILLO, BUT I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU BACK HERE
UNLESS IT'S ON VISITING DAY.
I DON'T THINK I'LL BE BACK ANYTIME SOON.
PERMISSION TO PASS, MA'AM? PERMISSION GRANTED.
OH, YOU FORGOT SOMETHING.
I KNOW EVERYTHING THAT GOES ON IN MY BARRACKS.
HAVE A GOOD LIFE, FURILLO.
GOOD-BYE PRESENT?
CAN WE MAKE A STOP ON THE WAY?
SURE.
[WHINNYING]
WHOA, BOY. DOWN, WILDFIRE.
[WHINNYING]
WHAT IS HE DOING? HE'S HURTING WILDFIRE.
[PABLO] HE'S NOT HURTING WILDFIRE. HE'S TRAINING HER...BADLY.
DAMN HORSE HAS NO CONFIDENCE.
CONFIDENCE.
[CLICKS TONGUE]
HEY! YOU--
[CLICKS TONGUE]
I'LL BE DAMNED.
[CHUCKLES]
NOW, LISTEN TO ME.
I DON'T CARE HOW MANY TIMES YOU FINISHED LAST
IN SOME RACE BEFORE THEY SENT YOU HERE.
YOU CAN DO THIS.
THIS IS A WHOLE NEW START FOR YOU,
AND YOU'VE GOTTA MAKE IT WORK.
OKAY.
ALL RIGHT. YOU CAN HAVE CARROTS NOW.
I'M NOT GONNA BE AROUND AS MUCH,
BUT I'M GONNA BE THINKING OF YOU.
AND I'LL BE BACK AS SOON AS I GET A DAY OFF OF WORK.
THAT'S A PROMISE.
HEY.
I'M GONNA MISS YOU.
COME ON.
HE LIKES CARROTS.
WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS? I NEED HELP.
WHAT DID YOU DO, MAKE A DEAL WITH THE JUDGE SO YOU GET CHEAP LABOR?
THE FAMILY WHO OWNS THIS FARM, THEY KNOW ABOUT ME? MISS RITTER DOES.
SHE AFRAID I MIGHT KILL THEM IN THEIR SLEEP?
IF YOU DON'T KILL THEM IN THEIR SLEEP, WE WON'T HAVE A PROBLEM.
WELL, I ONLY PROMISED TO STAY FOR THREE MONTHS, SO AFTER THAT--
DO YOU WANT THIS JOB?
BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T, I CAN TAKE YOU BACK TO OAKLAND RIGHT NOW.
DROP YOU OFF ON ANY STREET CORNER.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SAY SO.
I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK TO OAKLAND. THAT'S NOT ENOUGH.
I WANT THE JOB.

YOU NEVER TOLD ME PABLO HAD A DAUGHTER.
HE DOESN'T. THEN WHO...IS SHE?
IT PASSES-- THAT FEELING.
YOU LEFT THE FATIGUES BACK AT THE CAMP.
BELIEVE IT OR NOT, YOU LOOK THE SAME AS EVERYONE ELSE.
NEW HAND, MAYBE? WE'VE NEEDED ONE.
HOT WORKIN' GIRL LIVIN' IN THE TRAILERS?
MAN! WHAT ARE THE RULES ABOUT THIS?
IT'S NEVER COME UP BEFORE.
IT'S NEVER COME UP BEFORE 'CAUSE ALL THE HIRED HELP ARE USUALLY CHUBBY DUDES WITH BAD SKIN.
THERE'S A PAY PHONE BY THE STABLES IF YOU NEED ONE.
FIRST WEEK'S ADVANCE.
HOW MUCH DO I MAKE? 250 A WEEK.
THAT'S LESS THAN I MADE SELLING BURGERS. THAT'S WHAT IT IS.
THAT OKAY WITH YOU?
YEP.
WHEN YOU GET BACK, I'LL TAKE YOU TO MEET EVERYONE.
WHY ARE WE SHOWING CRUDE'S WORKOUT TO THE ENEMY?
JUNIOR DAVIS WOULDN'T KNOW A GOOD WORKOUT FROM A BAD ONE.
NOT SO GOOD.
WELL, STRANGER THINGS HAVE HAPPENED. HE COULD WIN THE STAKES ON SUNDAY.
SURE, IF THE DAVIS TRAILER BREAKS DOWN,
AND AVATAR NEVER GETS TO THE TRACK.
WELL, SAY YOUR PRAYERS TONIGHT. WON'T HELP.
AVATAR BROKE THE TRACK RECORD DURING HIS WORKOUTS LAST WEEK.
HOW'D YOU FIND THAT OUT? YOU GOT SPIES OVER THERE?
TRADED A BARRY BONDS ROOKIE FOR A LITTLE INTELLIGENCE.
WELL, IS THERE MORE? HE'S GONNA BE CARRYING HIGH WEIGHT-- 122 POUNDS.
HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO DROP OUT OF JUNIOR HIGH TO RUN THIS FARM?
HMM?
YOU NERVOUS?
NO.
A LITTLE BIT. IT'S JUST A NORMAL FARM.
THEY'RE JUST A NORMAL FAMILY.
YEAH. THAT'S WHAT I'M AFRAID OF.
I'VE NEVER MET ONE OF THOSE.
HENRY, TODD, THIS IS KRIS FURILLO. COMING TO WORK FOR US.
DO YOU KNOW HORSES, KRIS? I'M LEARNING. PABLO'S BEEN TEACHING ME.
YOU THINK YOU COULD TEACH THIS HORSE TO RUN BETWEEN NOW AND SUNDAY?
HE'S JOKING. I AM NOT.
I'M MATT. KRIS.
LET HER HAVE THE REINS, MATT.
TAKE HIM REAL SLOW. NO REAL SPEED.
WHAT'S HIS NAME? OKLAHOMA CRUDE.
[CHUCKLES] OKLAHOMA CRUDE,
YOU'RE GONNA DO JUST FINE.
[MATT] EASY, EASY.
[KRIS] OH, GOD!
SHE FALLS WELL.
NO PROBLEM. TWICE A DAY I FALL ON MY BUTT.
EASY. EASY, NOW.
[KRIS] ONE-- [MATT] TWO, THREE.
SMOOTH, KRIS.
STEALING OFF INTO THE BARN FOR A SECRET RENDEZVOUS?
SHE'S SWEATY FROM PITCHING HAY.
THE MUSKY SMELL OF HORSE MANURE IN HER HAIR.
YOU'RE A BAD MAN.
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE POTENTIAL OF THE SITUATION.
[HORN HONKING]
THIS SHOULD BE INTERESTING. WHAT?
MY SISTER FINDS OUT A GIRL WHO LOOKS LIKE THAT IS LITERALLY MOVING IN WITH YOU?
I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE LOOK ON DANIELLE'S FACE.
DANI AND I ARE FRIENDS NOW, MAN. UH-HUH.
I MEAN, SHE'S HANGING OUT WITH THAT-THAT MIKE GUY, ISN'T SHE?
AND, LOOK, YOU SHOULD BE ECSTATIC THAT YOUR BEST FRIEND'S NOT DOING YOUR SISTER.
WE'RE GOING TO THE LAKE. YOU WANT TO COME?
MATT'S WAY TOO BUSY. HE'S GOT TO BREAK IN HIS NEW RANCH HAND.
THERE IS JUST
SOMETHING ABOUT A GIRL ON HORSEBACK.
MATT, YOU ARE ONE LUCKY FELLA.
FOR POSTERITY.
OKAY, OKLAHOMA, LET'S SHOW 'EM WHAT WE CAN DO.
[CLICKS TONGUE]
[MAN] ♪ YOU CAN MAKE IT ♪
♪ MAKE IT ON YOUR OWN ♪
♪ YES, YOU CAN MAKE IT ♪
♪ YOU CAN MAKE IT ON YOUR OWN ♪
♪ AND YOU CAN SEE JUST WHAT I WANT ♪
HEY, MATT!
SHE JUST BLEW NEARLY TWO SECONDS OFF YOUR TIME.
SHE RIDES ALMOST AS GOOD AS YOU, DANI. DON'T YOU THINK SO, MATT?
HOW DO YOU LIVE WITH THIS GUY?
IT'S SOMETHING MY PARENTS ARRANGED WITHOUT ASKING ME.
IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME, I THINK I'LL BE POLITE AND INTRODUCE MYSELF.
LOOK, MAYBE I'LL COME DOWN TO THE LAKE AFTER I'M FINISHED WITH MY CHORES, OKAY?
SEE YOU GUYS LATER?
CHORES TAKE ON A WHOLE NEW MEANING. YOU'RE IN BIG TROUBLE.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? MATT AND I ARE OVER.
YOU SURE? THIS IS NOT THE LOOK OF OVER.
HOW DID YOU-- YOUR BROTHER JUST E-MAILED THIS TO EVERYONE WE KNOW.
I'M GONNA KILL HIM.
I TOLD YOU TO TAKE HIM OUT EASY.
I WAS JUST-- TRAINER TELLS YOU WHAT TO DO, YOU DO IT.
YOU'LL RIDE AGAIN WHEN I DECIDE YOU'RE READY.
I'M SORRY.
NICE RIDE. THANKS.
THAT'S HIGH PRAISE COMING FROM HIM.
HE'S THE TOUGHEST JUDGE ON THE FARM.
I'M JEAN RITTER. DO YOU PREFER KRISTINE OR KRIS?
MY MOTHER CALLS ME KRISTINE. I PREFER KRIS, MA'AM.
KRIS IT IS. WELCOME TO RAINTREE.
KENNY DAVIS.
WE'LL BE SEEING A LOT OF EACH OTHER. I LIVE RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD...
ON THE BIG FARM.
EXCUSE ME, BOYS. KRIS, YOU WANT TO TAKE A WALK WITH ME?
SURE.
HUH.
WHAT?
OH, I WAS JUST THINKING,
THINGS JUST GOT A LOT MORE INTERESTING AROUND HERE.
[JEAN] THAT WAS QUITE A RIDE.
PABLO TAUGHT ME EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT RIDING.
PABLO'S AN EXTRAORDINARY MAN.
HE HELPED US GET THROUGH SOME REALLY TOUGH TIMES.
ME TOO. I MEAN,
HE HELPED ME THROUGH SOME ROUGH TIMES TOO.
KRIS,
YOU'RE HERE BECAUSE PABLO BELIEVES IN YOU AND TRUSTS YOU.
NOW, I WANT TO TRUST YOU TOO, BUT...
SOMEONE IN MY POSITION OBVIOUSLY IS GONNA HAVE SOME CONCERNS ABOUT
WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH.
IF YOU EVER WANT TO TALK--
I MADE SOME MISTAKES. I PAID FOR THEM.
I HOPE I DON'T HAVE TO KEEP PAYING FOR THEM MY ENTIRE LIFE.
I WILL WORK REALLY HARD.
HEY, KRIS! WE HAVE A NEW COLT. WANT TO SEE HIM?
UH, SURE, TODD. THAT'S A GOOD IDEA. WHY DON'T YOU SHOW HER AROUND?
I'M GLAD WE HAD A CHANCE TO TALK.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
WELL, SHE'S NOT WHAT I EXPECTED.
[SCOFFS] SHE'S JUST A GIRL. YOU'D NEVER GUESS.
THE CAMP WAS GOOD FOR HER.
SHE LEARNED DISCIPLINE THERE.
HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
HOW MANY OF THEM WIND UP GOING BACK?
YOU GOT THE HOME-FIELD ADVANTAGE, BUT I HAVE THE PORSCHE.
[CHUCKLES] DUDE, CHILL. SHE SEEMS LIKE A NICE GIRL.
OH, I SEE HOW IT IS. YOU'RE GONNA PLAY THE MR. NICE GUY CARD.
WELL, IT'S BEEN WORKING FOR YOU A LONG TIME. WE'LL SEE.
[STEREO PLAYING]
OH. GOOD TIDINGS FROM THE WARRIORS GAME LAST NIGHT.
I HEARD.
LATER.
[HONKS HORN]
HE'S BEAUTIFUL. THEY'RE BORN WITH FULL-SIZE LEGS.
THEY JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THEM YET.
WE'VE GOT 20 OR 30 FOALS BORN EVERY YEAR.
GOT ANOTHER ONE DUE IN A COUPLE OF DAYS.
HOW DOES A PLACE LIKE THIS WORK? I MEAN, HOW DO YOU, YOU KNOW--
MAKE MONEY? WE DON'T ALWAYS.
WE BREED HORSES. WE TRAIN 'EM, WE RACE 'EM.
SOME WE KEEP AND SOME WE SELL.
WE ALSO TRAIN AND STABLE HORSES FOR OTHER OWNERS.
[MATT] IF HORSES DO WELL AT THE TRACK, PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO PAY A LOT OF MONEY FOR THEIR SIRES.
A ONE-YEAR-OLD ONCE SOLD HERE FOR A MILLION DOLLARS.
IT WASN'T A MILLION DOLLARS. IT WAS TOO. HENRY SAID IT.
HENRY EXAGGERATES. ARE YOU GUYS GONNA SELL THIS ONE?
[TODD] HIS BLOODLINES AREN'T STRONG ENOUGH.
WE'VE HAD TO SELL A LOT OF OUR BEST HORSES IN THE PAST YEAR OR TWO,
BUT THIS ONE WILL HAVE TO PROVE HIMSELF AT THE TRACK.
OH, WELL, HE SEEMS LIKE A WINNER TO ME.
[MATT] THEY ALL DO AT THIS AGE.
I THOUGHT I KNEW ALL THE HORSE PEOPLE AROUND HERE. HOW COME I'VE NEVER SEEN YOU?
OH, WELL, I'M NOT FROM AROUND HERE. I'M FROM OAKLAND.
ABOUT AS FAR AWAY AS YOU CAN GET FROM HORSE PEOPLE.
WHERE DID YOU LEARN HOW TO RIDE? [WHINNYING]
REALLY? AT CAMP.
I WAS NEVER ALLOWED TO GO TO CAMP.
GOT A FEVER WHEN I WAS LITTLE. DID SOMETHING TO MY HEART.
OH, WELL, I MEAN, BESIDES RIDING,
CAMP PRETTY MUCH SUCKS-- MINE, ANYWAY.
WELL, I-- I BETTER GO FIND PABLO.
I'M SURE HE HAS SOMETHING FOR ME TO DO.
IT WAS NICE TO MEET YOU.
SHE RODE YOU INTO THE GROUND, DUDE.
A SKIRT RODE YOU INTO THE GROUND. [WHINNYING]
SHUT UP. GIVE ME A BUCK OR BY MORNING, EVERYONE AT SCHOOL KNOWS.
I WASN'T EVEN TRYING. A BUCK.
I'M NOT GIVING YOU A BUCK. THAT'S TWO.
YOU KNOW YOU'RE GONNA PAY. YOU BETTER HURRY BEFORE IT BECOMES FIVE.

[MAN] I CAN'T EXTEND THE LOAN, JEAN.
I WISH I COULD, BUT THE WAY PETE LEFT YOUR CREDIT RATING--
WE PAID BACK EVERY SINGLE ONE OF HIS DEBTS.
AND USED UP EVERY ASSET TO DO IT.
I STILL HAVE A QUALITY HORSE OR TWO LEFT.
IF OKLAHOMA CRUDE WINS ON SATURDAY--
YOU KNOW, MY FATHER ALWAYS SAYS,
"RAINTREE RODE THROUGH THE GREAT DEPRESSION ON THE BACK OF A SINGLE HORSE."
I, UM--
I HELPED WRITE THAT OFFER THAT KEN DAVIS MADE YOU.
WITH HIS CONNECTIONS AND CASH FLOW, RAINTREE COULD BE BACK ON TOP IN NO TIME.
IT WOULDN'T BE RAINTREE.

AND THEN WE MAKE OUR MOVE.
DON'T PAY ANY ATTENTION TO THAT. YOU'RE NUMBER ONE.
AVATAR WILL CLOSE, BUT IF SORRENSON KEEPS YOU ON THE RAIL--
SORRENSON? IS THAT THE JOCKEY?
RODRIGUEZ OR LASALLE WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER.
THEY ONLY RIDE FOR THE TOP STABLES.
LASALLE'S ON AVATAR.
WE'RE 12-TO-1. [GRUNTS] WHAT DO THEY KNOW?
NOT A GOOD SIGN. WHAT?
LOOK AT THE DAVIS CROWD.
YOU ONLY INVITE EVERYONE WHEN THE TRAINER TELLS YOU TODAY'S THE DAY.
WHAT DO THEY KNOW?
THAT'S...AVATAR.
YOUNG MR. DAVIS.
HEY, WHO DO YOU LIKE IN THIS RACE? WAIT. LET ME VENTURE A GUESS.
THE FAVORITE? HOW'S IT GOING, LENNY?
I HOPE YOU KNOW MORE ABOUT HORSES THAN YOU DO ABOUT HOOPS.
YEAH. UM, I'LL SETTLE UP.
I KNOW. AND BY THE WAY, THANKS FOR REFERRING THAT COUSIN OF YOURS.
THE POOR BOY'S A SLAVE TO THE LAKERS, REGARDLESS OF THE SPREAD.
YEAH, NO PROBLEM. YOU OUGHTA BET ON AVATAR, LENNY.
HE'S A SURE THING. I NEVER BET, MR. DAVIS.
I JUST COME FOR THE-- FOR THE FRESH AIR.
BUT IF YOU DO DECIDE TO SELL SHARES IN THAT HORSE, BE SURE TO LET ME KNOW.
SURE, LENNY.
[MAN OVER P.A.] LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION.
THE NUMBER TEN HORSE IN THE THIRD RACE,
HURRICANE FLY HAS BEEN SCRATCHED.
THERE GOES AVATAR.
HE'S WASHING OUT TODAY, GRAMPS. MAYBE HE LEFT HIS BEST TIMES IN THE WORKOUTS.
YOU OKAY?
YEAH. [CHUCKLES]
I'VE NEVER BEEN TO A RACETRACK BEFORE.
[MAN OVER P.A.] THE HORSES ARE UP TO THE GATE. THE FLAG IS UP.
AND THEY'RE OFF AND RUNNING! [ALL CHEERING]
DR. ED ON THE FAR OUTSIDE.
GEORGIA ON MY MIND OUT TO TAKE THE EARLY LEAD.
NATALIE SINGS A SONG UP TO SECOND NOW.
AVATAR IS THIRD.
THE REST OF THE EIGHT HORSE FIELD IS SIMON SAYS

AND THE TRAILERS ARE DAN'S HOPE AND CITY BY THE BAY.
COME ON, OKLAHOMA! COME ON! SHH.
ALL THE WAY FROM FIFTH AND INTO SECOND POSITION, HOLDING STEADY.
GEORGIA ON MY MIND FALLS BEHIND INTO THE SECOND PACK.
AS OKLAHOMA CRUDE COME ON, OKLAHOMA CRUDE.
AND NATALIE SINGS A SONG TO TAKE THE LEAD GOING INTO THE FAR SIDE.
[NO AUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
HERE COMES AVATAR ON THE OUTSIDE.
THAT IS AN EARLY MOVE.
AND HERE THEY COME INTO THE FINAL TURN.
AVATAR STILL ON THE OUTSIDE AS THEY HIT THE STRETCH RUN.
AND AROUND THE CORNER IT'S OKLAHOMA CRUDE AND AVATAR
FOLLOWED BY NATALIE SINGS A SONG AND SIMON SAYS.
AVATAR MOVING HARD ON THE BACK.
AND NOW AVATAR MAKES THE FINAL KICK.
VIRTUALLY NECK AND NECK WITH OKLAHOMA CRUDE.
IT'S OKLAHOMA CRUDE BY A NECK AND AVATAR.
OKLAHOMA CRUDE HOLDING ON, BUT IT'S AVATAR MOVING HERE
AS WE COME DOWN THE FINAL STRETCH.
IT'S AVATAR MOVING HARD.
AVATAR AND OKLAHOMA CRUDE. OKLAHOMA CRUDE STILL AHEAD--
BUT IT'S AVATAR NOW MOVING IN FRONT! AVATAR MAKING THE FINAL KICK.
IT'S AVATAR FOLLOWED BY OKLAHOMA CRUDE.
AVATAR PUSHING AWAY FROM THE PACK.
IT IS A ONE-HORSE RACE! AVATAR AHEAD BY FOUR NOW
FOLLOWED BY NATALIE SINGS A SONG AND SIMON SAYS.
AND AS WE COME UP ON THE FINISH, IT'S AVATAR BY SIX LENGTHS.
AND WE'LL HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE PHOTO TO SEE WHO THE SHOW HORSE IS
BETWEEN NATALIE SINGS A SONG AND SIMON SAYS.
FILLING OUT THE FIELD IS CITY BY THE BAY AND DR. ED
WITH DAN'S HOPE PULLING UP BEFORE THE FINISH.
CONGRATULATIONS. THANK YOU, JEAN.
TOUGH LUCK, LITTLE MAN.
WHERE'S MATT? HE'S DOWN WITH THE HORSES HELPING OUT.
COME ON. LET'S GO. HEY, AVATAR RUNS HIS NEXT RACE
FOR DAVIS RAINTREE.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BLESS THE DEAL, HENRY,
AND YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY BACK TO THE WINNER'S CIRCLE.
[SCOFFS]
HOW MUCH WILL YOU HATE ME IF I GO THROUGH WITH THIS DEAL?
GETTING THAT CLOSE, IS IT? PRETTY CLOSE.
IS IT ABOUT MONEY?
'CAUSE I'VE GOT A LITTLE SOCKED AWAY FOR A RAINY DAY.
YOUR SOCK DRAWER ISN'T GONNA DO IT, HENRY. WHAT DO WE GOT?
FOURTH PLACE AND FALLING OFF THE PACE. THAT'S NOT A HORSE, THAT'S US.
WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE?
I DON'T SEE ANOTHER WAY OUT. IF YOU DO, TELL ME.
I HAD A HORSE ONCE NAMED TRAILBLAZER.
I KNOW. AND HE CAME FROM TEN LENGTHS BACK TO WIN THE BELMONT STAKES.
HE WOULD PIN HIS EARS STRAIGHT BACK, SHOW HIS CLASS,
AND BREAK THEIR WILL WITH A BURST OF SPEED LIKE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN.
DO YOU THINK TRAILBLAZER COULD HAVE BEAT AVATAR?
NOW THERE'S A RACE THAT I'D LOVE TO SEE.
AND YOU CAN THROW IN SEATTLE SLEW IN THAT TOO.
AND SECRETARIAT. YOU GOT THAT RIGHT.
[DANI] MATT.
HEY, DANI, AMBER. SORRY.
FOR WINNING? DON'T BE. ARE YOU GONNA COME TO THE FESTIVAL TONIGHT?
OF COURSE HE IS. WE'RE ALL GOING. KRIS TOO.
YOU HAVEN'T MET MY SISTER DANIELLE, HAVE YOU, KRIS?
YOU TWO SHOULD GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER.
YOU HAVE A LOT IN COMMON.
HORSES, I MEAN. OF COURSE.
AND THIS IS HER BEST FRIEND, AMBER,
WHO HAS NOTHING IN COMMON WITH ANYONE, BUT WE LOVE HER ANYWAY.
THE WINE FESTIVAL KICKS OFF IN TOWN. KIND OF A FOOD/WINE TASTING.
YOU SHOULD COME.
THANKS, BUT-- WE'D HAVE TO CLEAN HER UP A BIT FIRST.
AS I SAID, YOU JUST HAVE TO KNOW AMBER
TO UNDERSTAND HER ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE SENSE OF HUMOR.
ACTUALLY, I'LL SEE YOU OVER THERE.
[CLEARS THROAT] EXCUSE US.
WE HAVE TO GET HIM TO THE HOT WALKER.
OKAY. I'M SORRY. SHE TOTALLY FREAKED ME OUT.
I THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO HIT ME. I WAS GONNA HIT YOU.
I JUST MADE A JOKE.
SHE WAS COVERED IN HORSE SWEAT.
SHE SEEMS VERY NICE.
I, UH, HAVE TO HELP PABLO WITH SOME STUFF.
I'LL SEE YOU GUYS LATER.
CONGRATULATIONS. NICE RACE.
CAN YOU BELIEVE HER?
