Cayuse's Canyon
Luck of the Draw
RELEASED IN JULY 2008: Luck of the Draw is the story of Lucky, one of the slowest racehorses the world has ever known. Even though Lucky gives racing his all, he never manages to win a race, and soon finds himself working as a jumper and dressage horse. No matter how hard he tries, Lucky seems to fail at all disciplines.
Despite his lack of success, Lucky remains upbeat and hopeful. He is determined to find his life’s purpose, and eventually learns that succeeding in life doesn’t always involve winning trophies and ribbons.

Excerpt from Luck of the Draw:
"When I was a foal, my mother would sometimes ask me to jump a tree stump in the field. She said it would help me to develop agility for racing. I could never clear the stump. I would charge at it and either trip or jump and knock my back legs. Even with this fresh in my mind, I wanted to put my heart into something and succeed."
