Book submitted as a text file with page breaks. Check the chapter numbers,
as I think I miss numbered along the way somewhere. headers removed, page
numbers kept, if I could determine the right one. This was a very old copy
of the book but am happy with the results. may want a spell check. 300 plus
pages. And a good read, if you like horse racing.
Jimmy Creech was old and tired, yet within him burned youthful anger and
resentment toward those who were making a gigantic commercial enterprise of
harness racing. He wanted his sport left the way it was, the way he had
known and lived it at countless fairs for almost fifty years. He hated the
modern raceways mushrooming in large cities, where the horses were raced at
night under the lights.
He fought this new development the only way he knew how. He bred his finest
mare to the Black Stallion. And when the colt came, Jimmy placed upon its
back all his hopes and plans for the redemption of his sport. Seeking hands
to guide and race his colt, he turned to youth again, and Tom Messenger took
his seat in the sulky.
Here for boys and girls of all ages (as well as for adults who love
horses) is the second son of the Black Stallion. It's the story they've been
waiting for .. . another book in one of the most popular series ever
published. And it won't let its readers down in excitement and racing
thrills or in warmth and feeling of a boy's love for his colt... all of
which they have learned to expect from Walter Farley's books.

stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs.
