The specks grew into horses with bits of color on them, and then the deep mut- tering roar of the crowd merged into one great shout, and swelled and grew into sharper, quicker, im...patient cries, as the horses turned into the stretch with only their heads showing towards the goal.

" but he only waited until he could distinguish the Norton colors, with his lips pressed tightly together.
