Summary
The 14:20 to Davenport runs on time. Eighty-four ponygirls in harness pull seven passenger cars forty miles down the line—gel-slicked, edge-denied, and desperate.
Lara Cress manages the team with precision: veteran racer Dahlia, eager Poppy, perfectionist Sienna—and Lotus, the newest recruit.

Summary
Churchill Downs, 2001: the grandstand is empty, the billboards say ENOUGH, and the sport is dying. But there is a statue on the Heritage Walk, and a name carved above two dates, and a story that runs backward from the bronze to a foaling barn in 1893—to the last great ponygirl of a vanishing line, and the three people who made her.
An American epic of the Bluegrass—blood, devotion, and the things we carve in stone.
