The first time he saw Seabiscuit, the colt was
walking through the fog at five in the
morning. Smith would say later that the
horse looked right through him. As if to say,
"What the hell are you looking at? Who do
you think you are?" He was a small horse,
barely fifteen hands. He was hurting too.
There was a limp in his walk, a wheezing
when he breathed. Smith didn't pay
attention to that. He was looking the horse in
the eye.
