Here is an informational article prompted by the accident which occurred to Verema in the Melbourne Cup. I think most of us know this information, but I thought it was well articulated.

"And Allah took a handful of southerly wind, blew His breath upon it, and created the horse.... Thou shall fly without wings, and conquer without any sword. Oh, horse" - old Bedouin saying.
