South Africa
Mr. King Naki once rode the greatest racehorse in the whole of his region. He was raised to follow in his father's footsteps, working as a stable hand in the city. But he had bigger plans. He quit the stable, spending all his savings on a horse. His fellow-villagers thought he was crazy to blow his money on a horse. He named the horse "Thula Sibone" Wait and See! His dream is to win the annual Amateur Championships which is raced on a wild track, with no fences, and no markings.
