Maybe someone there has the video posted on their page.

Also just another horse book observation, The Blind Connemara by C.W. Anderson, great for kids. This horse's name reminded me of that fond memory.

Connemara is a crappy golf course in Lexington so I doubt that's where it's derived, more than likely the town in Ireland.
