This streaming video has been vastly improved since the first time I viewed it. This is a tribute to the gallant thoroughbred filly, Eight Belles, who died this past Saturday after finishing second in the Kentucky Derby. This is a collection of candid images of this horse combined with a song, Storm, performed by The Saddle Club [3:46].
... Wherever you find your home
You can take us with you
wherever you roam
There's a place within our hearts
and you'll always be there
You're earth water fire and airFree like the earth strong as the mountain
Free like the ocean wild in the storm
Free like the fire burning brighter than a star
Free like the wind whispering in your heart
I'm free.-- The Saddle Club
This brought tears to my eyes....Thank You, Hedwig - a GREAT memorial to Eight Belles! :o}
