conversations.value: The Black Stallion Challenged
  HIALEAH, Fla. Feb. 21—Undefeated Flame will attempt to reduce the "Big Two" to the "Big One" this afternoon when he opposes the Black, handicap champion, and four others in the Widener Handicap at one mile and a quarter.
  This running of the winter classic shapes up as the finest in its long history. The Black, in defense of his championship laurels, will carry 136 pounds, while Flame will get in with 130. It is this difference of six pounds which many experts feel will give the challenger an edge in the run to the finish wire. The possibility of the Black being beaten has attracted nation-wide, even world-wide interest to this year's $100,000 Widener. Never in the Black's long career in attaining turfdom's highest laurels will he be so hard-pressed to retain his supremacy over the handicap ranks...
  Henry feared Flame more than he had let Alec or anyone else know. The greatest horse and rider could be guilty of making mistakes during the running of a grueling race, and tomorrow it would take just one false move by the Black or Alec for the Widener to be lost to them. He wished he could quiet the butterflies in his stomach.
  An hour before the running of the Widener Handicap, Alec warmed up the Black under the tall Australian pines which lined the sandy road through the stable area. When he had finished, he knew his horse was supple and alert for the job ahead of him.
  Henry held the Black's bridle while Alec slid down from the stallion's back. "I want you to gallop him in front of the stands, too," the old trainer said. "Break him out of the post parade the first chance you get. Gallop him all the way into the backstretch before turning him and going back to the gate. I want him warmed up and in his best stride when the gate opens, not after racing two or three furlongs like maybe some of the others."

conversations.value: Alec moved the Black into the Number 5 starting stall, satisfied that his horse had been warmed up just as Henry had wanted. He had taken him all the way into the backstretch before returning to the gate in front of the stands. It should not take the Black long to get into his best stride. He was supple enough, alert enough to move to the attack the moment the gate was sprung.
  Flame was putting on a show for the crowded stands, rearing skyward as an assistant starter sought to grab his bridle and lead him into the gate. But despite his antics, he seemed to be under control. Steve had good hold of him and with no further trouble Flame walked into his starting stall. The boy's face radiated confidence, perhaps, like his horse, responding to the fans' applause.
  Alec turned away. He thought of Steve Duncan only as a competitor now and no longer a friend in need of help and advice. Steve was on his own.
  The Black banged against the sides of his stall and Alec spoke to him softly, telling him to wait, that soon they'd be off and running. He knew his horse would be able to handle the top weight of 136 pounds, and their next-to-outside post position was better than being closer to the rail. Even with all the warm-up, the Black might be late in breaking from the gate. At least, though, there was no chance of their being pinned on the rail today.
  He saw Willy Walsh in the Number 1 stall, all set to go. Light-weighted as Mad Wizard was, Willy wouldn't have any trouble getting him out of there. Mad Wizard had the early speed to go to the front immediately, but Alec didn't think Willy would keep him in the lead very long. He'd be afraid Mad Wizard might get lonesome out there all by himself and start looking around for company. Willy would take hold once they were free of the pack, saving his horse's speed for later on. But Alec knew he couldn't be sure of anything today.

conversations.value: When their plane crashes in the Caribbean Sea, Alec and the Black are swept apart. The exhausted stallion is carried by the currents to a remote island. There he finds a herd of wild horses ruled by the giant red stallion Flame. But before the Black and Flame can determine which is the dominant male, they must fight a rabid vampire bat intent on destroying the entire herd.
  Alec Ramsay first saw the Black Stallion when his ship docked at a small Arabian port on the Red Sea. Little did he dream then that the magnificent wild horse was destined to play an important part in his young life; that the strange understanding that grew between them would lead through untold dangers to high adventure in America.
  Steve Duncan had a haunting vision of finding a magnificent red stallion... and finally discovered him in a hidden island paradise. But the giant horse was wild and unapproachable. Then Steve saved Flame from a horrible death, and a miraculous friendship began—changing both their lives forever.
  Can a filly win the Kentucky Derby? That's what Henry Dailey hopes when he buys the Black Stallion's filly. But Black Minx has a mind of her own. Her desire to go fast is great, but so strongly does she resist training that Alec and Henry have to trick her into running! As they bring her to Churchill Downs for the great race, they wonder if she truly is up to the challenge.
  When Hopeful Farm burns down, Alec Ramsay's dreams for the future go up in smoke. To make matters worse, a strong young colt named Eclipse is threatening to replace the Black in the hearts of racing fans. The Black is getting older, and no one believes that he could win again. No one, that is, but Henry Dailey. Against all odds, Henry and Alec create a sensation as they bring the Black back to the track—and the crowd knows that they are about to watch the race of the century!
