A famous racing adage is ‘a good horse can come from anywhere’ and that is the case with Ada Storm, who might not have been a star on the racetrack, but he has done many big things since he was retired.

Today, the 15-year-old chestnut gelding with the large white blaze is the precious friend of 13-year-old Mack Moore of Uxbridge, ON who rides ‘Clyde’ in the fast and exciting sport of barrel racing.

“Him and Mack get along so well together,’ said Mack’s mother Sarah, an accomplished horsewoman and outrider at Woodbine racetrack. “He is a super smart horse and he looks after her.”
