Preview:
In the middle of a raging thunderstorm, a traveling circus accidentally leaves
behind some very precious cargo--a baby zebra. Horse farmer Nolan Walsh, who
takes him home to his young daughter Channing, rescues the gangly little foal.
Once a champion thoroughbred trainer, Walsh has given up horse training for a
quiet life with Channing on their modest Kentucky farm. The little zebra, or
"Stripes," as Channing calls him, is soon introduced to the farm's misfit troupe
of barnyard residents, led by a cranky Shetland Pony named Tucker and Franny, a
wise old goat who keeps the family in line. Goose, a deranged big-city pelican
that's hiding out in the sticks until the heat dies down in Jersey, joins the
group. The un-aptly named bloodhound Lightening keeps a lazy eye on goings-on at
the farm - in between naps. The Walsh farm borders the Turfway Racetrack, where
highly skilled thoroughbreds compete for horse racing's top honor, the
ultra-prestigious Kentucky Crown. From the first moment Stripes lays eyes on the
track, he's hooked--he knows that if he could just get the chance, he could
leave all those other horses in the dust. What he doesn't know is--he's not
exactly a horse. But with characteristic zeal, he devotes himself to training
for the big time, with a little help from Tucker, who has coached a host of
champion racehorses in the past.
