(4) 4-6 Newly freed former slave Gabriel Alexander (Gabriel's Horses) begins to realize his dream of becoming a famous jockey. However, a trip to race at the well-known Saratoga racecourse shows Gabriel that freedom doesn't insulate him from racial prejudice, even in the North. Though some of the characters are wooden, Gabriel's journey is compelling. Historical notes give more information. Bib.
