Arent you glad Gallant Alans running? Do you think he can win? Joe asked flatly. y ' Sure. Well, he cant. Hes only going to break his heart out there. lie doesnt know what losing is. He should have stayed retired, undefeated. Toby stared at the ground. Then: Ronnie has a box in the grandstand, he said. She said if I saw you Joe turned away without a word, leaving Toby standing there." "' Ronnie saw him, coriiiug.and she knew from his expression how angry he was. Gripping her hands together, she waited as though expecting a physical blow. When Joe reached her box, however, the words hed planned to hurl at her died on his lips. I forgot you were so heautiful he finally blurted out, his eyes devouring her. Ronnie fought; back Oh, Joe! tears. Im sorry if I You didnt mean to, Joe .interrupted. Oh, yes, I meant to!

Oh, Joe, Ronnie choked, anybody ever tell you youre the swellest guy alive? :l As the race got under way, Joe could hardly bear it. Eighteen Jiorses were out there on that track, and Gallant Alan was last. As they neared the stretch, the thunder' of hoofs seemed to Ronnie like a requiem beating against her heart. Satans' Pride was in the lead, with Bowler and Wild Thunder close on her heels. Ronnie covered her face with her hands, unable to . watch any longer. It was then that she heard his name, rolling from a thousand throats. Gallant Alan was moving up I race .track, a mirOn a acle was happening,; .a prayer was being answered. Hope came to', life in !
