Louisville, Kentucky, known for its rich equestrian traditions, is a city deeply divided by the opinions on horse racing and rodeo. On one side are the passionate and driven horse enthusiasts, including racing Thoroughbred breeders and trainers, rodeo competitors, and dedicated equestrians, most of whom just want to compete, have fun, and make waves in their chosen sport with their horse. On the other side are the very vocal animal rights activists who believe these industries exploit, harm, and treat horses like commodities instead of living beings. Caught in the middle are your average Joe horse owners and lovers, who may compete sometimes, may not, but ultimately just want to do what's best for their horses. As tensions rise, the city becomes a battleground of conflicting values, with passionate voices on both sides seeking to make a difference.
