description: A New York Times Bestseller In 2003, a three-year-old with an irrepressible personality and the unlikely name of Funny Cide became "the people's horse," the unheralded New York-bred gelding that - in a time of war and economic jitters - inspired a nation by knocking off the champions and their multimillionaire owners and sweeping to the brink of the Triple Crown. It's a story for the underdog in all of us - a new American classic.
