Dominique's thoroughbred

This is Dominique. She's from France. Dominique wasn't in the market for a horse. But a year ago, she gave her heart to this guy.



Most race horses who don't make the grade at a high-end track face a dismal future. They're taught but one trick, and that's to lean on the bit and run. Rather the last thing you want unless you're a jockey.



But these two decided to write their own destiny.



They say soft hands make a good rider. Of course, that's true. But in this case, I'll bet gentle eyes made all the difference.
