For equestrians, it's easier. They just find a horse, get on it, and ride. For wild horses, it's a whole different world of running and trying to escape. Val sees it that way at least. A wild Arabian in the Colorado Black Forest fields. Unfortunately for Val and any other wild horse who lives there, they're always on the run as people want to capture them and train them. One unlucky day, Val finally gets captured. It keeps getting worse and worse for her. Will things turn around for the young horse?
